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

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

Very nice full band peak on this. Brent rips. Great way to open a show!
Samson and Delilah

Knickerbocker Arena

CHURCH! Brent lays into the jam nicely
Bird Song
March 25, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

Great spacey jam in this one. Really dug it, save for a minute or two of MIDI flute. Solid version for sure
Eyes Of The World

Knickerbocker Arena

Agree on all accounts. The slower, swinging tempo harkens to early 70's versions. Flows very nicely
Greatest Story Ever Told
March 31, 1973
War Memorial

I may be crazy, but it sounds like Jerry is hinting at St Stephen licks during the peak
