Very crisp, smooth version. Crack open a cold one and tap your toes to this one.

Love this one. Spunky Jerry with a quirky, inventive solo and nice playing from Bruce as well.

As this show's biggest fan, I'm aghast I didn't post this lovely version. Jerry at his most charming. Bruce is in damn good form as well.

Dark Star

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

People pay so much attention to the Kesey rap, it's easy to ignore that this "Dark Star" itself is pretty spectacular: very spacey meltdown. Also, the last split version and the last one where both verses were played in the same show.

Excellent version.

Did we just declare war? Phil's bombs are frightening here. Monster version.

Just listened to this one last night. This one should be way higher. A truly out there version; this is the "Estimated" equivalent of the Miami '89 "Dark Star." It's terrifying at points.

This is an absolutely fantastic late day China Cat -> Rider and should be way higher. It just ROARS!
