Download Series 12. Real spicy jamming; Jerry is ON. This show is underrated!

Really sweet embryonic version. The Cryptical Reprise gets pretty far out!

An absolutely stunning, note perfect transition right here. Garcia weaving total magic. Second best of the year behind 10-2-77.

Whoa. This first half is some of the most balls to the wall Other One jamming you'll hear. Worthy of the 1968-69 versions!

Baltimore Civic Center

Top notch version from a pretty overlooked show.

Probably the best of the year. The final jam starts so tentatively you think it's going nowhere, then - BAM - they just knock you sideways. Amazing stuff.

A fantastic version, but I think it's actually a little overshadowed by the other greats of May - check out 5/11, 5/19, and 5/28 for some of the pinnacles of this tune IMHO.
