Drums -> Space
Sept. 10, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Heavy (and long) drums, short space, > Dark Star, but it sounds like they stay in Space for the monster post-verse 2 jam.

Morning Dew
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

I've been conditioned to hear that transition out of Eyes into China Doll (and for a second it sounded like they weren't sure which one they were going to hit). It's a yowza of a Dew!
Eyes Of The World
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

They got the groove right on.
Me and Bobby McGee
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

This is one of those instances where Bobby's cowboy song fits just right into what's going on in the set, and Garcia's particularly sensitive behind him.
Wharf Rat
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

When they get the tempo of Wharf Rat just right, it's eerie how similar it sounds to Dark Star.
Truckin'
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

Killer stuff. The transition and jam on the WRS material are all-time.
