A very tight version with great Phil bombs and Jerry solo. This show slips under the radar. Don't miss it.

Fire On The Mountain

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Jerry's Mutron magic and Bobby's noodling slide make this version unique. So much energy here.

Drums -> Space

Capital Centre

The jam out of Terrapin>Drums>And>Space is a lysergic MIDI soup of ecstasy. Too bad it had to go into Brent's cheesy lullaby after instead of a Wheel

Estimated Prophet

Frost Amphitheatre

A raging '83 version, filled with crispy headiness. Bobby and Jerry steal faces during the end jam.

Flawless execution. Perfect Keith solo and Garcia performance. A definitive '77 version.

High Time
Dec. 28, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

There were lots of good Road Trips releases, but this whole show, released as Vol. 3 No. 1, always stood out to me as one of the best. As for the "High Time," it's pretty sweet, but there are much more powerful versions out there, in my humble opinion.
They Love Each Other

Hartford Civic Center

I love the fast lead runs here. Jer would occasionally break these out post-Egypt '78. Flawless execution, and Brent on Hammond organ instead of the toy piano (don't get me wrong, I love the toy piano/Reading-Rainbow-keys sound). It's worth noting that this is from the Dick's Picks 8 show. Despite Latvala's distaste for anything post '73-'74, he dropped this one in the series early. The whole concert is on fire.

What a beaut. Jerry really shows off his singing talent here.

Glad to see this post is getting some attention. Again, listeners need only tune into Brent on the Moog to have their minds blown. Not to mention that Jer work.

Austin Municipal Auditorium

Love Bobby's solo section (starts about 11 mins in).
