Laid-back show opener...cool points for the transition into unusual

Hofheinz Pavilion

Thunderous! Everybody on point. Fierce weir vocals, crunchy lesh, Jerry rippin', kieth and the drum boyz pounding away

Very nice...Not the greatest of all time, but an average Dew from '77 is great enough in itself

Rarely a song I like, but this one stands out to me, probably because of Brent and Jerry, in that order

Un-friggin-believable work from Garcia here, no doubt...that cannot be overstated...Keith and Donna shine here as well...The band is locked in

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Damn straight. Figured this would be posted, but didn't expect it to be this highly ranked...it should be though...This could be the best Fire of all time...Let it burn, Let it burn

Pauley Pavilion - University of California

Didn't mean to seem upset...I have no bad things at all to say about this site, just for the record. Steve has corrected my mistakes before, that is why...anyway, Hakuna Matata!

A great show, one I always come back to. This version swings and grooves and oozes refined psychedelia.
