Jack Straw
April 6, 1987
Meadowlands Arena

Coming from a hardcore pre-hiatus guy, this might just be the best Jack Straw ever.
Mind Left Body Jam
Nov. 11, 1973
Winterland Arena

One of the best parts of an otherworldly Dark Star. Probably in my top 5 MLBs.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 26, 1973
Pershing Municipal Auditorium

The one released on the Dick's Picks is 2/28/73, FYI. And it's an excellent version, possibly the best before they started playing the "Feelin' Groovy" jam bridge to Rider.
Ship of Fools
June 23, 1974
Jai-Alai Fronton

Really unique version with the jam leading in...sounds just like a mellow summer evening.
Ship of Fools
Sept. 18, 1974
Parc des Expositions

A+ perfect version. Keith's keyboard fills make this one.
