Listen to Phil on this one. Then listen to Bobby.

The Fox theater

OK, I'll say it: "I can't believe this isn't on here." Majestic, powerful MD. Jerry on a mission. Bobby playing clippety-cloppety sounds in the coda.

Jerry sinks his teeth into this jam. A wonder to behold.

Truckin'

Irvine Meadows

Arguably the version in which Bobby forgot the fewest lyrics. Also great, imaginative playing by Jerry throughout.

Man Smart, Woman Smarter

Civic Center

From the cold depths of 1985 comes a truly great MSWS. Drums are tight, Phil and Bobby sound great, and Jerry repeatedly comes up with gold.

Patrick Gymnasium - University of Vermont

This is an insane version. Would be much higher if there was a SBD.
Estimated Prophet

Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

Great first solo and then everyone kills it in the jam, especially Bobby, Phil and Jerry
Ship of Fools
May 5, 1978
Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

When Jerry wasn't paying attention (for whatever reason), it manifested itself in dropped beats. What he does at the end of this tune is not good.

Really interesting what Jerry plays during the verses and Bob's approach to the intro.
Ramble On Rose

Horton Field House - Illinois State University
