Dick's Picks, Vol. 32. One of my favorite versions of the '80s.

Absolutely demented bulidup and jam + a killer Phil solo segment

Can't believe this isn't here!! Possibly the most epic 1970s LLR!!!!

Just a stunning ensemble effort...Jerry's complimentary playing duing the verses is breathtaking!

Out-friggin-standing 18 min. space/jazz jam out of this Truckin'...then a brief drums segment into a blistering Other One

Ramble On Rose

Pauley Pavilion - University of California

Probably the best version of the song IMO. Phil drops some serious thunder!
Wharf Rat

Providence Civic Center

One of my favorites. A soaring version that caps off one of the best jam sequences of the year.

University of Nevada

Really HOT Truckin>Other One jam from an otherwise sub par show. Worth it to hear this one awesome segment though.

Energetic as usual for '74. The "Wood Green" jam out of this one makes it really interesting.

Wild and hairy blues-rock jamming out of this one, with Jerry bending the hell out of the strings...one of the best Truckin jams ever, should be ranked higher!
