Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Aug. 6, 1974
Roosevelt Stadium

I revisited this one recently, and I should add that Garcia plays some of the most viciously fluid runs I've ever heard on this song. Should be ranked higher, it's an A+ version for sure.

Been a favorite ever since I first heard Dick's Picks, vol. 11

Providence Civic Center

Agreed on all points. A unique, almost minimalistic version but so perfect at the same time. Also major points for filling the rare encore slot.

Hollywood Bowl

Unique version, but the sound of this AUD is what really blows me away...one of the best this side of 8/6/71.
