Row Jimmy
June 21, 1976
Tower Theater
Intense and electrifying, highlighted perhaps by Jerry’s vocal performance. Another amazing June ’76 Row Jimmy.

I Need A Miracle
Dec. 17, 1978
Fox Theatre
Hot early version with a well-developed Jerry-led outro jam. Check out the amazing Joann Walker recording.

Space
April 29, 1984
Nassau Coliseum
Unusual, long Space for the era. Fans of Feedback will enjoy this one.

Tennessee Jed
Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre
I’m on an upvoting spree this first set, which is to say — it’s all so good. Don’t skip any of the short songs on the way to the big jams.
Terrapin Station
Aug. 4, 1982
Kiel Auditorium
This is an exceptionally well-played Terrapin even before they get to the jam. With the jam, this is a reasonable contender for the Top 25. Brent shows off his jazz chops throughout.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre
Commenting purely on the audio: Anyone checking out this show should hear the Dusborne matrix, which is much livelier and more detailed than the muddy-sounding Dave’s Picks release.
To Lay Me Down
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum
Altogether almost faultless, this one climaxes nicely with Jerry’s solo.
Black Throated Wind
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum
Fabulous performance all around!
