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
Monterey Bay Aquarium

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...

My People's ... THIS right here is one of those ALL TIME GRATEFUL DEAD HIGHLIGHT REEL Moments that fall into the realm of 'best of' or 'Holy Shit' or 'What The Fuck' moments that they laid down, and I'm talking the ENTIRE 30 MIn OF Pure Amazement it's a masterpiece.....
