The wonderful slow super stoney jam reminds me of that Miami '74 Jam > Ship of Fools

Standing On The Moon

Autzen Stadium - University of Oregon

Beautiful version of what IMHO is maybe their most perfect song. And Jerry's tone on the solo!
Samson and Delilah
Feb. 5, 1978
Uni Dome, U of Northern Iowa

Just ridiculous. I need to check this whole show out; it seemed uninspired at first, but by the time Bobby comes back in, the whole band crackles with the sort of energy I always associate with a great show. edit: Good call on that matrix, great sound! The slow start is still pretty good, and the band is clearly eating their wheaties. Jerry. devours. this.

Some tender moments, some powerful ones. Keith seems to be having a good night, but the whole band plays as one.
