Playin' In The Band
Aug. 20, 1972
San Jose Civic Auditorium

A good cure for those 'No 'Cid Blues'. This one is a gem.

Morning Dew
Oct. 18, 1972
Fox Theater

Part of the first Playin' sandwich. The transition back into Playin' is like the cops kicking your door in at 4 a.m. it is so sudden and surprising.

Turn On Your Love Light
April 5, 1971
Manhattan Center

An aural honeypot capping a dynamite show.

Dark Star
Nov. 7, 1969
Fillmore Auditorium

A breezy and pleasant intro gives way to a monstrous intra-verse portion that features some 'Uncle John's Band'-themed jamming.

Dark Star
Oct. 28, 1972
Cleveland Public Hall

Serene, frenetic, diffuse, cluttered--in short, this one goes through more changes than David Bowie's hair. Pheatures a phleshed out 'Philo Stomp'.

Feel Like A Stranger
Dec. 16, 1992
Oakland Coliseum Arena

Smokin'
Scarlet Begonias
March 16, 1990
Capital Centre

Awesome jam at the end--that type mostly particular to the Dead's later period in which the jam doesn't seem to move linearly through time.
Eyes Of The World
May 13, 1983
Greek Theater

A good version. Spring '83 has some good shows, for sure.
Eyes Of The World
Dec. 18, 1973
Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

A good version.
Greatest Story Ever Told
June 30, 1974
Civic Center

This is the version that made me fall in love with this tune.
