Oakland Auditorium

Speedy late 70's precision. Hot relic from a sweet run. (also, trying to add 7.4.89 and keep getting an error message. Version needs recognition)

Baller Jerry track that made the jump to the big leagues. They lock in nicely to this version

I have an odd love affair for this song and Euro '72 was its peak. UK a few nights later is far superior, but this one certainly has sufficient gusto

Really shreddy version. Jerry on full hose

This one is spot on

Hill Auditorium

This obviously wasn't the opener; Mac auto-type fail

Rich Stadium

I could NOT get this to post. I tried and it came out as 1/1/65. Bar none, my favorite Bertha. The mid jam is absolutely sublime. Jerry hit a perfect note that will forever standout in my head

Merriweather Post Pavilion

I don't even necessarily like this song, but the buys crush this front to back. Bobby even has some nice supportive axe work

Jeeze, He's Gone -> Smokestack -> Cryptical -> Drums -> (Awesome) Space. Hard to ask for a better sequence. Bad ass
