Ramble On Rose

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
April 24, 1978
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
March 15, 1990
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
Aug. 20, 1983
Frost Amphitheatre

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

Winterland Arena

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

LET PHIL SING! Also, if you listen to the "Scarlet Begonias" performed just before this, you may find God.
He's Gone
June 7, 1977
Winterland Arena

Also, sweet distortion tone on the Travis Bean at the end.
He's Gone
June 7, 1977
Winterland Arena

Correct, OP. These are confirmed "altered" shows. The photos of Bobby in the boxed-set, all bug-eyed and smiling, are hilarious, for those of us who like to snicker about these things (~):-}
Cumberland Blues
Jan. 24, 1970
Honolulu Civic Auditorium

A lot of really smooth work here from Garcia. He just melts down those Bakersfield solos.
Bird Song
April 24, 1984
Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

April '84 was a BIG time for "Bird Song," as evidenced by the number of submissions here. But this one is over-the-top, man.
