Raw and raucous, this one packs quite a wallop for its size.

A mellow version featuring a rather unique outro portion for ’73. Truckin’>Eyes>Stella

Hartford Civic Center

One of those ‘I can’t believe it’s not here yet’s. This thing was forged from hot iron.

The satisfying conclusion of a good sequence. A sibling of 11/13/72.

Bobby is pretty good on this one. It's right after 'Promised Land'.

Ramble On Rose
July 8, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

From a show that needs no introduction, this is one of the few versions of this song that I would be glad to listen to again.
Black Peter
Feb. 13, 1970
Fillmore East

Maybe the best thing off of that album.
You Ain't Woman Enough To Take My Man
Feb. 15, 1973
Dane County Coliseum

Donna delivers.

Yeah, Jerry kept evolving. I have read somewhere (I'll try to source it) that this acoustic sound is something that Jerry had been striving to attain. If you like this sound, check out some of the China>Riders from this time.
The Other One
Dec. 19, 1973
Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

Well, if we're calling that Feedback/HyperSpace part of 'The Other One', I agree--great stuff! It certainly impressed me more than anything else on DP 1 after my first listen.
