BEST of the early Dark Stars? You decide. Gorgeous melodies, epic flow. A lot packed into only 10 minutes...

Not a very crisp SB, but really electric, emotional jamming from Jerry. An underappreciated version.

Most amazing Let It Grow climax I've ever heard; Jerry and Phil really going to town. Also a wild Billy-driven fusion jam into Wharf Rat.

KILLER ultra-jazzy jams from Garcia. An all around classic show.

Possibly my all time favorite S>F, personally I think this is better than 2/5/78 or even Barton.
