Adams Field House, U of Montana

Great second set version after a 45 minute jam and emotive China Doll.

Major screw-up of the lyrics here, Pig tries to make up for it and then Jerry just steals the show. I can dig.

Great transition out of Mama Tried! Real cool little western pair in the middle of a fantastic first set

Just incredible! Check this one out
Truckin'

Ohhh man this one is red hot. Criminally underrated and I believe it to be a top-notch Truckin'. This is just blistering all the way through and a part of an incredible hour of Dead jamming

The Spectrum

Intro from that incredible 4 minute Dark Star is sublime and this version just hits exactly where you want it to. Right there next to the Veneta version, this song is a personal favorite. Damn. This one is just so special
Weather Report Suite
Oct. 18, 1974
Winterland Arena

Video of this on gd YouTube channel is fantastic!
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 6, 1973
Public Hall

Oh man.....this China Cat SOARS at about 7.5 minutes in and this one is unique up until then but just an incredible version. '73 is criminally underrated when compared to '72 and '77!!!!!
