Out of cold Dark Star space. Prankster jukes regardless this one serves itself well.

Black Peter
April 12, 1970
Fillmore West

Mellow and cool. This one follows one of those Dancin's that'll knock your teeth out. This peter cools off the flames. Ghostly coolness.

Turn On Your Love Light
March 24, 1970
Pirates World

This has it all. Pig on top, tight frantic lines, tension, build, and crowd back and forth. Serious sequence here starting with the High Time.

Eyes Of The World
Oct. 20, 1974
Winterland Arena

To think for a moment, this upon its completion, this Eyes, was to be the last ever. Think of the emotion, energy, power. One can only imagine.

Viola Lee Blues
March 20, 1970
Capitol Theater

Packs a hell of a punch. A later version, 70' but solos as it should.

Massive!
Let It Grow

Selland Arena

Sick, lighting quick, ferocious, and off the fricken' chain!
They Love Each Other
Feb. 15, 1973
Dane County Coliseum

Freedom, check out 5/1/81. It's one of the best shows of 1981 and the entire Brent era.
Believe It Or Not
July 17, 1988
Greek Theater - University of California

Cgarces, I agree this is a great song, and this version is especially good. I love when Garcia pulls a twist and adds a little JGB to the Grateful Dead sets.
Box of Rain
Feb. 28, 1973
Salt Palace

Emotive, and my favorite live version. Obviously, however, studio cant be beat.
