Smokin' out of control

Wharf Rat

San Diego International Sports Arena

So soulful. One of the best Wharf Rats Jerry has ever sung. All around perfect version, coming out of one sick jam.

This is a creepy trip coming after a monster Samson

Johnny B. Goode

Cotterell Gym - Colgate University

This gets out of control fairly quickly, when jerry takes his solo to the next level. A seriously rocking version.

Holy shit is this a smoker or what. Too bad they end it 5 minutes in, this version was fucking cooking.

Black Peter
Oct. 29, 1977
Evans Field House, Northern Illinois University

I have to admit this show is solid end to end. This Black Peter is an excellent capper to a nailed 2nd set. Pristine version
Truckin'
May 26, 1973
Kezar Stadium

Way more energy than most. Absolutely scorching.
He's Gone
May 26, 1973
Kezar Stadium

Phenomenal version, Lesh makes this one.
Me and My Uncle
May 26, 1973
Kezar Stadium

Charged, Garcia's solo snares the life of Cowboy Americana, enlightens it, and pumps it with steroids. This is the goods here.
Dancin' in the Streets
May 6, 1970
Kresge Plaza - MIT

Right on nonoyolker, what a massive version! Whole show is off the chain, pure psychedelic mastery presented. This Dancin' is right up there with the best of them.
