Black Peter

Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

Dark with stanky Jerry riffs over Bobby whammy work. Right in my wheelhouse but might not be everyone’s cup of tea.

Whole band flexes their muscles on this one - press play and watch the room spin.

Lightning fast- I can only imagine the barkers that were carved backstage this night.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Silva Hall, Hult Center

Hey Grendel for killer '84 style in this vein check out 4/19/84 one of my alltime favorite and rippingest '80s China>Riders....No double verse but something was in the air or the drink....
Not Fade Away
April 28, 1971
Fillmore East

Remains a mystery to me how this one does not rank higher and only has 9 votes - should be near the top in my estimation but then I love '71 energy and sound.

still killer
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 4, 1973
Cincinnati Gardens

Seriously heady '73 action here - laid back but forceful and the peak into the chilliest of Feelin Groovies is not to be missed for those that give a fart...

If this does not make it to one of the top 10 Bertha's of all time - listen to it LOUDER please.
