Awesome near 7 minute Playin that starts to go out there as it would much more in a few months. Really interesting period for the band imo

Sugaree
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

In a show (and first set) full of top tier GD highlights, this Sugaree shines in a year where they would really dig into this number. Jerry absolutely slays here, and the Betty board sounds soooo good
Cold Rain and Snow
Feb. 11, 1970
Fillmore East

Is 1970 Dead the best Dead? This show is just so good
Dancin' in the Streets
Nov. 8, 1970
Capitol Theater

This one might as well be apart of the Dark Star. Such an incredible sequence with inventive playing all around. A very unique and top-tier Dancin for sure
Scarlet Begonias
April 18, 1978
Civic Arena

Idk bout anybody else but i absolutely love this version. Thanks Dave for the killer filler
Not Fade Away
April 15, 1978
William and Mary College Hall

This four and a half minute intro is soooooo goood. Slow and methodic, this NFA hits the spot. Blistering Dead
