Winterland Arena

Very beautiful, almost sparse playing on this one. It's different than most from '74 but it works.

Short but high octane version with Billy and Jerry crushing it...the jam rises to a furious climax!

Palais Des Sports

Unusual version that starts out very quiet and minimalistic, alternating throughout from hot to cold. Jerry and Billy are really tearing it up!

Indianapolis State Fair Coliseum

Killer Nobody's jam in which Jerry apparently breaks a string, but Keith steps up very nicely. Some subtle Other One teases towards the end of one.

Great rec, this version definitely kicks major ass. One of my favorite '78s.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

University of Nevada

This is the infamous "Washoe zephyr" show but they are definitely ON for this number!!! Like Keith's piano work going into the jam and Garcia is just burning as brightly as that headlight...
