Bird Song

Giants Stadium

Very inspired playing. Jazzy swing from the rhythm devils, Lesh is barreling down the low end, and Jerry dancing the leads to a powerful conclusion

New Minglewood Blues

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one takes a bit before the boys get their footing, but once they do, LOOK OUT. Choice peak in this throbber

Alabama Getaway

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

SCREAMING start to the show. Boys attack like rabid dogs. Great Brent solo in here. Welcome to Red Rocks!

Uncle John's Band

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one opens up nicely, and continually unfolds, into a seamless segue into PITB reprise

Promised Land
Dec. 15, 1978
Boutwell Auditorium

They are playing in Birmingham, the song mentions Birmingham, mass crowd hysteria ensues. Hot version though, so justifiable

Dusted off this show for the walk to work and morning's activities. Such a beautiful version here. Top shelf show all around

Winterland Arena

Oh hell yeah! Was just posting for the NFA - Excellent segment
The Music Never Stopped
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Sorry I haven't commented on this earlier. Version is definitive - spacey, then very solid peak. Show has been one of my favorites from '78 since day 1. Excellent pick!
Casey Jones

Paramount Theatre

It cannot be overstated how incredible this jam is. Leaps and bounds the best Casey Jones around. Listen, rinse, repeat.
Here Comes Sunshine
Feb. 23, 1974
Winterland Arena

Phew, this one is a powerhouse. Different than a lot of HCSS. My go to version has always been 12/19/73, but I will go to this version for far different reasons. Had this show since jumpstreet, but never recalled this jam. Nice post!
