RFK Stadium

Dark Star> He's Gone > Wharf Rat > Truckin'. RFK 73. A great sequence at, in my opinion, the show of the year

Right between a sweet Here Comes Sunshine and an all-time Dark Star, the boys rip a quick A&A. Nice interplay between Keith and Jer

Fillmore East

The boys do this classic justice, both Jer and Pig have some solid playing. Not as rippin' as some of Europe 72s, but it's the April 71 run!

The end of a Half-Step>Frankin's Tower>MAMU triptych, not too shabby.

It's the Dead at the Garden, plenty for the whole family to enjoy! Some inspired playing on display

Chateau d'Herouville

Everyone's in fine form! Billy and Pigpen sharing a mind for a few minutes here! Right up there with the best of em, no doubt

Awesome Dew. They are definitely enjoying themselves. Many peaks and valleys in this one. Supremely underrated show here, played to a village of about 300 people in the French countryside, what a moment
Truckin'
July 9, 1989
Giants Stadium

Inspired jamming during the peak of the jam. Super underrated show, that will change with the box set release
West L.A. Fadeaway

Giants Stadium

Seriously underrated version here. Great show, carries the energy over from jfk
Loser

Winterland Arena

This version is head and shoulders above Cornell. Jerry's solo makes time stand still, and he gets great support throughout the entire song, especially from the devils. Punctual kicks that give this version a particular twang to it. Top 5 Loser in my book
