Merriweather Post Pavilion

Sublime. Full heady steam engine coming down the track, check out this deep sounding monster, mellow and contained and nailed

Goodnight Irene

Civic Auditorium

Great cover of an awesome weavers song. The song works well in the encore slot. Really fun listening to it, Jerry singing this song is a real trip!

The Other One

War Memorial

A fairly short version, but don't let the time fool you, this version is as intense as they come. Its to wonder how they could make this up on the fly

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.
