Not GD but what a powerful and courageous performance by Bobby the whole evening and this was clearly the highlight. Cathartic powerful and emotional. Still miss Jerry everyday, cant imagine the void he left for those that really knew the man like Bobby. This is a must hear for all those that love the music, love Jerry, and love Bobby."

Dark Star
April 11, 1969
University Auditorium, University of Arizona

Another incredibly hot April1969 Dark Star. THis is real nice and out there, APRil 1969 has some of the most creative psychedelic Dark Stars they ever created. Fascinating and well worth the listen. A little over 20 minutes of pure joy. It is a shame we only have a snippet of this show because what we have is very hot very jamming stuff, Jerry and Phil are really in the pocket.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Saratoga Performing Arts Center

Absolutely amazingly powerful performance. this is so in need of a snbd, fantastic. A new member of my top ten Scarlet-> Fire's that is for sure.
Lost Sailor
Aug. 13, 1979
McNichols Arena

Stand alone Lost Sailors are Rare, this is probably the best of the bunch, Phil is delivering bombs throughout and bobby is singing nice and passionately, and Brent sounds fantastic on the keys. Jerry is crisp and clean on his guitar solo. A real nice version of a very rare stand alone Lost Sailor
Let It Grow

Onondaga County War Memorial

This one is truly amazing Phil is a monster on this and bobby and donna are beautiful together, the pace is wicked and Jerry nails his parts wonderfully a ripping rocking version, top shelf for shore.
