The Other One

Fillmore East (Late Show)

Sounds great. Blistering in parts. Really tight.

Great call. Jerry really rips on this one.

Newcastle City Hall

This version is very interesting. A bit of a hard edge and nastiness to this one. Around 5 minutes in Jerry digs deep.
Not Fade Away
Dec. 29, 1977
Winterland Arena

This one has moved into my top 3. Very well played. The boys are on attack mode on this one.
Promised Land

The Mosque

This version may in fact be the gold standard. People love or de-value this show. But this version is just about perfect.
