Cameron Indoor Stadium, Duke U

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.

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

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.

The Other One
June 18, 1974
Freedom Hall

Miles Davis-esque funky jam at around the 12:00 min mark. Love it.
Wharf Rat

University of New Mexico

Very good, but I don't see how this beats 5/7/1977.
The Other One
April 11, 1972
Newcastle City Hall

This is a fully dosed version of "The Other One." It took three gels. "Feelin' Groovy Jim" is the icing on the cake, but check out the total meltdown jam that rages before it.
They Love Each Other

Oklahoma City Fairgrounds Arena

This one is IT for me.
Touch of Grey
Sept. 20, 1993
Madison Square Garden

This one bursts right out of the gate. Great energy, but not rushed in any way. Jerry playing Lightning Bolt and Phil in his zone. Fantastic performance.
