The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

Hampton Coliseum

Agreed. Good call. This one is one of my all time favorite shows with the TOG, Terrapin and Dew in in my all time top 5! Got this tape a week after the show and turned many folks on to the boys with this one. The Philly Civic center shows that followed were strong as well!

Agreed - these '72's have the benefit of Jerry in fine vox - I like this one a ton! these fall shows in '72 were crazy good.
