Every song from this epic show should be listed and this was the only one left out and like the rest of the show it's a smoker!

Save the Whales
Feb. 9, 1969

This STW is supreme man!!! I was there on this night on 2/09/69 at the OLD Monterey Bay and it was so magic ... there was a dude in the front row quoted as saying * JERRY!!! DARKSTAR!!!! and Jerry delivered his infamous line ... "hey man we're trying to save the whales here man"
Big River
Feb. 26, 1973
Pershing Municipal Auditorium
Yeah I know everyone means well but this version is top three FOR . SURE. And it's my personal #1. It's just SO fucking perfect in the vocal delivery and you have never heard a tighter and on point band in this BR! and bout 2min in there's an interlude and the whole band kicks an an accent together "BOMM BOMM BOMB" & I've never heard em do that accent so perfectly. No Joke this version could be studied by a music school course on any number of band dynamics...
