Rip snortin' version!

Doin' That Rag
Feb. 11, 1969
Fillmore East

An extra handful of stank on the end jam puts this well above a "normal" version. Definitely worth checking out

The Other One
Feb. 11, 1969
Fillmore East

Not the longest version (due to time restraints), but this one starts like it is shot out of a fucking cannon

Space
May 6, 1980
Rec Hall, Penn State U

A short, incredibly dense, and interesting piece of space

I've commented earlier on the NFA portion of this sandy, but this GDTRFB is a considerably meaty portion as well! Very hot ish

The Weight
July 23, 1990
World Music Theatre

RIP Brent. His final lyrics are tear jerking in context
Cumberland Blues
July 17, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Brent playing like he’s possessed. His link up with Jerry is positively electric. Crusher of a version
Dark Star
May 7, 1972
Bickershaw Festival

Surprising this one doesn't get more dap, because it is a creamy ride through the cosmos. Far more mellow than some of the angular versions from tour, this one is a relaxing sonic cushion to float through deep space. Love it
Chinatown Shuffle
April 14, 1972
Tivolis Koncertsal

Back again on this one. Keith absolutely CHEWING up the scenery. So chunky on the boards. Choice doesn't begin to describe
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
April 25, 1977
Capitol Theater

Often a plug and play, obligatory closer, but this one is different. Band attacks with insane fervor and energy. Colossal high energy closer to an incredible show.
