Brokedown Palace
Sept. 17, 1970
Fillmore East

The acoustic set is unbeliebable. We get Ripple, Brokedown and Box of Rain. Three of my favourite songs back to back.

You can tell a good Wharf Rat (by the way she shines??) just by listening to the outro jam

Love the mellowness of this show, most of the songs are played at a slower tempo.
Scarlet Begonias

Capital Centre

Must be my favourite standalone scarlet, you can how it's starts to morph into the monster that became in 77
Dark Star
Oct. 19, 1973
Oklahoma City Fairgrounds Arena

The Dew that follows is sick but this Dark Star is one of the few that does nothing for me. I wanted to like this version, but I just can't. Yes, it's jazzy and contemplative and really pretty but just when they were reaching their peak during the MLB jam the mess up completely, which ruins the version for me, it's really sad because other than that is a pretty great version :(

Can't go wrong with '77
