Fox Theatre

Booming peak jam, then a flawless segue back into TOO

The Other One

Fox Theatre

Two huge swells in this one. The first is a very funk jam led by Keith and Billy. The next involves a manic peak by Jerry. Worth checking out

Long Beach Arena

This jam is a patient wave of energy that hits a progressive peak, then dissipates as cautiously as it grew

Long Beach Arena

Jam starts fairly mellow, then Jerry vaults it into noodley hyperspace

Incredibly delicate version. Garcia very much in the forefront

Jack Straw

Autzen Stadium - University of Oregon

Tough that Bobby has technical issues during this Straw, but he leaves the boys to tear this version a new one. Jerry shreds this to pieces! Very, very nice.

Autzen Stadium - University of Oregon

This is very patient, poignant, and soulful. Jerry's vocals and playing are hauntingly on point. Very nice
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

JFK Stadium

Spun this one several times this weekend. Jerry's leads at the end of Scarlet are just incredible. He repeats a lick toward the end that sounds so vibrant, like a bell ringing. Coupled with a sick FOTM, this one has all-time status
Brokedown Palace

Knickerbocker Arena

This one shines
The Other One
Aug. 23, 1971
Auditorium Theatre

The jam after the MAMU is crispy goodness. This one delivers
