Probably my favorite versions with Bruce and that's saying a lot.

Pauley Pavilion, UCLA

The bass and drums are practically absent on recording but Jerry/Brent/Bobby really sound great during jams. Any '82 Shakedowns are a B at worst

12/16/78 Lite. Typical tight late '78 version with whistling Bobby and all.

Cold Rain and Snow

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Man I love this 'silky' version. Jerry plays about 50% less notes than your typical CRS. Que this one up and melt away in your chair.

Orpheum Theatre

Most up-tempo CRS of the year. Jerry means business during the outro!

This is the only Dark Star that gets a vote from me
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Deer Creek Music Center

Bruce/Vinny/Bobby really get at this one! The Row Jimmy, TLEO, UJB and BTW also shine on this night
