Let It Grow

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.

Cotterell Gym - Colgate University

Damn, this one is short but ridiculously hot for 1977!

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.

Dark Star
March 21, 1973
Utica Memorial Auditorium

This night I think gets overlooked also because of poor SQ due to tape damage. If there were better tapes of the 2nd set especially, I think it would be more well regarded.
The Music Never Stopped
Jan. 22, 1978
McArthur Court, U of Oregon

Goddamn what a set closer!!!
St. Stephen
Jan. 22, 1978
McArthur Court, U of Oregon

Probably the best post-hiatus version. That jam is so utterly unique, and the melodies just pour out of Jerry's guitar like water...incredible.
St. Stephen
April 23, 1969
The Ark

Absolutely classic...one of only two St.Steve>It's a Sin>St. Steve!
Eyes Of The World
Feb. 28, 1973
Salt Palace

Dick's Picks 28 has the (nearly) complete show including Eyes. This is one of my favorite shows of '73.
