Playin' In The Band

The Palladium

From an overlooked show, this version absolutely kills. Insane jamming by all members, a must listen.

One More Saturday Night

Jai-Alai Fronton

Best of 74' and a sick ending to a legendary jam

Slow with a very deep rich sound. Great version

The Music Never Stopped

Nassau Coliseum

This is a mindblower. Jerry goes into hyper-speed and sends the crowd to a different dimension.

Playin' In The Band

I would stack this up with nearly all other latter day playin' jams. Super weird, but absolutely massive

Blistering solos by Jerry. I might even like this as much as that monster Playin' from this second set. Forget the Road Trips, the AUD for this show is superb.
Viola Lee Blues
April 6, 1969
Avalon Ballroom

Full throttle, dark, and energetic.
The Other One
April 6, 1969
Avalon Ballroom

Certainly one of the best ever.

Kresge Plaza - MIT

Jerry Garcia called this the definitive version. I would hesitate to go that far, but a great version in its own right.
