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.

Philadelphia Civic Center

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.

Wow, thanks for this rec!!!! This is easily one of my new favorites. Jerry is just INSANE.

Monster version indeed, very emotional playing. Be sure to check out 5/11/77, though. Might be a little better, and is easily one of my new favorites thanks to Grendel.

Excellent show opener. Jerry's playing is very melodic, almost lilting.
