Felt Forum, Madison Square Garden

Perfect execution, akin to the Europe '72 version in terms of precision, Kreutzzman is all over the kit. Fiery Garcia licks reaching incredible peaks

Oh my, the band interplay is absolutely top notch and so mature. Ultimate boogie-gusto, Jerry givin' his all and singin' with soul. Great shit.

This blew my mind at the movies, the vocal jam at the end was insane on the big screen

Got up and wandereddd, wandered downtown, nowhere to go, but just to hang around. My favorite Wharf Rat ever. Something 'bout this one but I can't put my finger on it.

Best of 1977, absolutely stratospheric
Dark Star

Winterland Arena

Absolutely incredible.. This one is in a world unto it's own.. Tucked in the far corner of 1972, this one is incredibly jazzy, very focused. Epic. An incredible display of traveling through many different soundscapes.
Truckin'

Providence Civic Center

Dick surely didn't pick his Truckin's lightly. Right on, merryjerry. This Truckin' jam is one of the best, don't let the votes fool you! Oozing with psychedelic lines from Garcia, whole band is in peak form. June 1974, man.
