Hell in a Bucket

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Surprised this has't been submitted yet. My favorite version. So much energy. Weir screaming like crazy. Drummers going nuts.

Dancin' in the Streets
Feb. 4, 1970
Family Dog at the Great Highway

Easily the best Dancin' ever. So mellow and trippy and spacey, almost Dark-Starry. Officially released from the Family Dog via the Download series

Olympia Theater

I like the way they never really fully realize the UJB jam in this one, but instead just dance around it, dipping in and out of the theme, but never going overboard. Understated, underrated.

Musikhalle

A truly under-rated show. Every time I listen to this one, I enjoy it. Solid through and through.

They're all so good. Every Europe '72 Dark Star should be on this list? You know what would be a challenge? Finding the WORST Europe '72 Dark Star. Which one is it? ^_^

Best Dark Star from the Europe '72 tour. A Top Five Dark Star of All-Time. Ending jam into Sugar Magnolia is scary at times.
