Rainbow Theater

Silky silky goodness. Brent makes this version. He owns a nice little groove right at the end. Pretty solid version

Nassau Coliseum

Heart wrenching and gorgeous. Rivals my favorite from Dead Set, but just a step below. Incredibly beautiful though, spilling with emotion

Eyes Of The World

Pauley Pavilion - University of California

Easily overlooked because of the magical Playin'>UJB>Dew>UJB>Playin' earlier in the set - this version still shines brightly all on it's own

Fillmore East

Def short, but serious bouncy blues. Pig in fine form
Dancin' in the Streets
Dec. 31, 1971
Winterland Arena

Blasts off new years celebrations right out of the gate! The only version played in '71 and last one until '76. Smoldering energy
Uncle John's Band
May 19, 1977
Fox Theatre

My favorite out of the spring '77 shows and top 3 for me all time. Dusted this off today and it's like putting on an old sweater that fits just exactly perfect. Awesome segue in from a dream-like PITB, and the final several min are just full band locked in power. Looove this show
Ramble On Rose

Olympia Theater

Bright, crisp, precise
The Other One

Olympia Theater

Not much more that can be said about this version that hasn't already been stated. The real gem of this show and a top tier jam for the tour. It's more contemplative and melodic than others from this era. Everyone locked in, so many special segments. They hint at a Feeling Groovy jam. The portion before Bobby McGee is utterly gorgeous. All-timer, no question.
