It Must Have Been The Roses
July 8, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

One of the most passionately sung Roses out there, all the Jerry ballads from these two nights at Red Rocks should be on the list.

It Must Have Been The Roses
May 6, 1978
Patrick Gymnasium - University of Vermont

The entire 1st set from UVM ’78 should be in the list, this Roses is another of the gems from this set.

SMOKIN’ 2nd SOLO- This must rank up with the best of '77. Since the WL Box set was released, you should have listened, hit the link, listen NOW!

Cold Rain and Snow
Dec. 26, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Love this version, Phil is a beast after the vocal finale. Weir also contributes some nice rhythm, (better than the slide in ’78 IMHO), give it a listen. Is this the best one out there?
Cold Rain and Snow
May 11, 1978
Springfield Civic Center Arena

This is my personal favorite from shows that I saw, and it was the first Cold Rain as well. Always a treat to open a show, and this version laid the ground work for an amazing night in Springfield. Just listen how Jerry growls / moans / oohhs through the coda. Makes me smile every time I hear it.
Here Comes Sunshine
Oct. 25, 1973
Dane County Coliseum

Very sweet version indeed, not a long as some of the monster versions to come later in the fall, would have loved to see the evolution of the Wake of the Flood songs live as they progressed through an amazing year for the Dead. Great time to be a Wisconsin Dead Head, two great shows in an 8-month period. This version needs more votes, give it a listen.
Brown Eyed Women
May 28, 1977
Hartford Civic Center

Love Spring ’77, Love this version, very smooth indeed, To Terrapin, Hartford ’77 released in 2009. This was my second show, with one of the best openers Bertha> Good Lovin’> Sugaree, all Heady Versions.
Brown Eyed Women
June 17, 1991
Giants Stadium

GDConnoisseur’s video link is not valid anymore, Voodoonola2 has the entire show, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlEb2CPPs-E. Good version, but I’ll take any 77-78 Brown Eyed over this one.
