Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Completely torn to shreds. Brutal jamming, and a massive crescendo.

Top shelf version, one of the best.

Fillmore East

Not a note missed, and not a second wasted. A superbly polished Stephen, and i'm surprised it isn't here already. Sick version from a Dope show

Dancin' in the Streets
March 21, 1970
Capitol Theater

Fantastically jammed and layered version that is definitely worth multiple listens.
Might As Well
April 8, 1991
Orlando Arena

Smokin'!!! Garcia's tone just sounds incredibly polished, just relaxed cranking from Jerry this whole show.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
June 17, 1975
Winterland Arena

Super cool, first Help on the Way ever performed live. The slipknot is absolutely massive, and a great franklins tower to top off the suite. Superb playing from an often overlooked 1975 show.
Ship of Fools
Dec. 5, 1979
Uptown Theater

Maybe the best post 77' version, and is clearly a sublime and emotive rendition of a great song.
Samson and Delilah
Dec. 5, 1979
Uptown Theater

Blistering, and powerful. Super fiery solos here, this version is SMOKIN'.
