Notable for the "miracle beer" Bobby passes around to launch the song. "Everybody just wet your tongue". Okaaaaaay.

Playin' In The Band

Winterland Arena

One of the last ones with a clear "The Main Ten" jam in it (around 2:50), namely the primordial ooze that becomes the Playin' we know in a few months.

Fully loaded, hard charger. Tight, uptempo, and jumping.

Clanging twanging banger with just enough grit in the gears, could have gone a bit higher, but tight and right in its way. Underrated show here folks.

Solid and soulful. Jerry's voice is on point.

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.
