Fillmore West

Excellent stand-alone version, Jerry plays and sings a perfect tempo. Beautiful version, ethereal to say the least.

Civic Arena

Middle of the road show at best, but this Black Peter portrays a certain beautiful somber joy that just clicks along with the very slow tempo

Frankly, I was quite surprised upon seeing this one had yet to be posted. A seamless and absolutely sick version

Jack Straw
Dec. 29, 1977
Winterland Arena

The buildup to Jack Straw from wichita is just insane. Jerry goes crazy and so does everyone else. All in all a superb version it should definitely be higher.
Viola Lee Blues
Jan. 20, 1968
Eureka Municipal Auditorium

Awesome jam!
Morning Dew
Dec. 31, 1972
Winterland Arena

Inspired performance by Jerry
Dark Star
Aug. 24, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

Such a chill version. Just epic, and absolutely one of the best of 72'.
