Subtle power and perfect execution. The "retirement" shows are full of pure, clear playing.

Relaxed (Hawaii, natch) vibe without a Pig rap, but the band sounds just outta sight and Pig is on. Good times here.

Powerful vocals and a tight sound in front of what sounds like only 100 people.

You've never heard anything like this before. Out take from American Beauty era, mis-dated on Archive, but absolutely wonderful.

A+ goddamned good, keeps me bobbing and weaving. Hard throbbing, and into a killer TOO, too.

Fillmore East

This whole run is beyond immortal and every CRS just kicks. This one is brilliant.

Hey there's a bit of Terrapin in here. Check out Jerry's melodic lines starting just around 06:50. Am I crazy or is there a little theme that suggests they were already working it out, and he slipped in in? So cool.

Exactly what darkstar 67 et al said here. I'd only add that Jerry solos throughout with quicksilver brilliance, note-for-note beauty. He was bursting with ideas here.

This isn't space. This is just TOO>Morning Dew. It's awesome, but calling it space is anachronistic.

One of the nicest ones I know from '76.
