Bertha
Sept. 7, 1983
Red Rocks Amphitheater

Soulful, melodic soloing, with Phil interweaving with bombs. On the AUD (Charlie Miller) Phil is clearly audible, its thunder. Certified grade A.

Mexicali Blues

Universal Amphitheatre

Cowboy western polka at its finest

Morning Dew

Universal Amphitheatre

Powerful and forceful; Rising and falling, opening; Shattering, weeping; Closing and crashing.

The Other One
June 29, 1973
Universal Amphitheatre

Tearing a hole in the mind, spinning and drilling right into the cortex; Feel the pulse, the synergy; The twilight zone

Cleveland Music Hall

Smooth and funky; Garcia's tone is just right; Lesh is cruising; very strong opener.

The Eleven
Oct. 12, 1968
Avalon Ballroom

Immediately comes to mind when looking for a monster rendition. Flowing and super raging.
St. Stephen
Oct. 12, 1968
Avalon Ballroom

Power in full swinging abundance. Not the longest version but packs a strong punch. Segues out of an altogether dimension eclipsing Dark Star, and segues into a mad Eleven with huge peaks and Garcia butane fuel jamming.
Caution
Feb. 24, 1968
Kings Beach Bowl

This version is sick. Lightning tempos, and ferocious psychedelic jamming.
Franklin's Tower
Sept. 29, 1977
Paramount Theatre

Very mellow, and the beginning lead in is sincerely and concisely played. Nearly 17 minutes of sweet action.
Big River
July 31, 1974
Dillon Stadium

Keith and Jerry absolutely crush this.
