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

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.

Iowa Fieldhouse - University of Iowa

Jer and the boys just dominate this one. They hit every chord change just exactly perfect, and Jerry's end solo is great. Intense vocals all the way through. A guy calls for them to play "Purple Haze" after the song on the Mance/Bass audience tape, which is excellent. The soundboard is also very good for '82.
Eternity
June 18, 1995
Giants Stadium

Jerry is pretty absent for most of the song (it sounds like he was trying to get the steel drum MIDI set on his rig), but the rest of the band absolutely kills it. Vince does some great work here. When Jer finally kicks it into gear, the jam starts to go to some interesting places.
Wharf Rat

Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

This is a stand-out for sure. This whole show is probably the best of 1994.
Morning Dew
June 18, 1974
Freedom Hall

This performance contains the best Phil I have heard on a Dew. The appropriate amount of Phil Bombs this song deserves.
