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

Black Throated Wind
May 7, 1972
Bickershaw Festival

I think this is the headiest BT Wind I've heard. Keith and Jerry are playing like men possessed. They just completely nail this version. It's hard-rocking and just builds and builds. Jerry's leads are thoughtful and deliberate.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
May 7, 1972
Bickershaw Festival

Surely a Top Ten version. Very deliberate playing from Phil, Jerry, and Bob. An amazingly gritty, in-your-face recording. Just truly a standout version. One of the best. Up there with 5/3 and 8/27/72
Good Lovin'

Nassau Coliseum

Oooooooh baby bay-bee, I wanna know: Will you be my girl?
Good Lovin'

Olympia Theater

This is a really unique and standout version. The band is grooving so mellow.
Black Throated Wind
June 18, 1974
Freedom Hall

Headiest version? Maybe. Probably one of the slowest, grooviest, funkiest, most honky-tonking, shredding, wailing versions I've heard!!
