Greatest Story Ever Told

Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

Solid version of this tune. Less of a trainwreck when played later in the set it seems.

First great post-coma moment. Phil is unbelievable throughout. Jerry's in it to win it. Check the SBD.

Rowdy, spirited version. Jerry not quite done with it when everyone else is.

Jerry kills the middle solo and the interplay between him and Weir at the end is fantastic

Nassau Coliseum

Brilliant contortions in the solo.

The jam after Ship of Fools will make you go wait a minute, and replay it from the beginning.
New Minglewood Blues

Golden Hall, Community Concourse

I love it when Jerry plays angry. Check out the power chords. The Rango aud is incredible sounding.

Jerry sounds great in the first solo but this is all about Bobby's playing in the outro jam. Fuckin sick.
