Moody Coliseum - Southern Methodist University

Not the best recording, but the jamming more than makes up for it...this is a favorite for Fall '77 after 10/29.

Probably the best LIG of 1977 and my favorite stand-alone version!

Wicked jamming in an underrated show; the conclusion is especially H.O.T.

This one is is pretty kill too, but I think I like the night before (9/7/73) better!

Absolutely love this version...very intense, with some wicked, jazzy trills from Jer. Stunning version for its first time out.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Feb. 17, 1973
St. Paul Auditorium

HOLY SHIT!!! Jer says "Get down!" and do they ever...one of the very best, most high energy versions I've heard, with ridiculous leads from Garcia. Be sure to listen to the NFA too! This is truly amazing, even with the tape cut.

That's Keith on the Theremin! An excellent and unique performance for sure.
Dark Star

Absolutely INSANE meltdown in this Dark Star. Just plain ridiculous.
