Oct. 13, 1968
Avalon Ballroom

From a painful whisper to pure lightening, an enveloping force of nature

Death Don't Have No Mercy
Oct. 13, 1968
Avalon Ballroom

Dark, moody, and soulful. A searing guitar solo, a purely haunted version. An evocation of the deep unharnessed power that controls the fatal cycle.

Turn On Your Love Light
Dec. 2, 1971
Boston Music Hall

Pulsing and free. Bill sounds like he has triple the arms. Pig sweats some blues, Garcia liquifies. Lock yourself in, strap up, and don't look back.

Dancin' in the Streets
June 3, 1976
Paramount Theatre

Churns, plays itself out, factor playing. Energetic, smooth as smooth.

Morning Dew
Feb. 28, 1973
Salt Palace

This is what all Morning Dews should sound like. Spectacular final crescendo. One of the better Dews of 73'
Cumberland Blues
May 15, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

This is a real smoker, and vocals are top-notch. The whole early show is worth checking out.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
June 8, 1977
Winterland Arena

They hit this out of the park. Each instrument clicks, and there is clear communication between instruments. Rocking and powerful version. Definitive.
Wharf Rat
June 8, 1977
Winterland Arena

This is really good. Epic O1<Wharf Rat
New Minglewood Blues
Nov. 6, 1977
Broome County Arena

These guys were on fire this whole show. But during this song they kick it into a new gear and pour it on like this was the last time they were ever going to play the song.
