Heavy NFA jam including a stunning Big You Goodnight theme. One of the best.

Holy Moley!!! WHITE hot Truckin' peak, into a seriously funky powerhouse space jam, and then landing on a wild Other One jam

Simply stunning standalone version, possibly the most emotive outro jam ever

Selland Arena

Possibly the most gorgeously jammed version ever. Guaranteed Jerry's long, dreamy outtro will wisk you away on cloud 9

Not Fade Away

Baltimore Civic Center

The first half is out of control. It slows a bit in the middle, but the transition into GDTRFB is killer. Better than Cornell for sure (IMHO of course).

The groove on this one is outrageous! Fantastic interplay on this slow burner masterpiece!

Ohio Theatre

Seems like the best NFAs are in '71!!! This is my second fave after the epic 11-15-71.

A unique version...sounds like they're gonna quit right after the song, then all of a sudden its off to happy melody jam land!
