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

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

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

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

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

Promised Land

Boutwell Auditorium

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

Phil bombs ruined my living room. Definitive version

Orpheum Theatre

The most unique 'Comes a Time' ever. 15 min of bliss
Morning Dew
Sept. 18, 1987
Madison Square Garden

Doesn't get much better than this. Jerry's voice and playing are so emotive. Great version. Some songs are better with a weathered Jerry voice of the late 80's early 90's. Dew is one of them. More fragile beauty and vulnerability than healthy early 70's versions.

My go-to version. Incredibly creative jam
