Wharf Rat

Fox Theater

Expertly rendered. Bobby provides terrific atmospheric coloration. Jerry just rocks out through the whole thing.

Beat it on Down The Line

Philadelphia Civic Arena

Zippy, choogling BIODTL with a great groove.

Charlotte Coliseum

More than usually haunted Space raves and knocks around before cooling a funky, colorful Other One intro.

Dupree's Diamond Blues
Oct. 5, 1984
Charlotte Coliseum

The playing is perfect fairground calliope blues. You won’t care about the fudged lyrics or scratchy singing.

Capitol Center

Powerful ending with Phil thumping away high on the fretboard. > Drums.

Winterland Arena

WTF! This sounds like a highly electronic Drums segment from the ’90s. Unlike any other Seastones performed at a Grateful Dead show, as far as I’m aware.
Drums -> Space

Alpine Valley Music Theatre

They inhabit space with such total commitment and seem reluctant to leave even after 10 minutes, hence the drawn-out segue into The Wheel.
Wharf Rat
Jan. 10, 1978
Shrine Auditorium

Another ludicrously fine Wharf Rat of the late ’77 – early ’78 vintage. Adds to the flow and power of the ’77s a fearless exploratory edge peculiar to January ’78. Very free and jammy with exemplary contributions from the entire ensemble.
The Other One
Jan. 10, 1978
Shrine Auditorium

Heavy, blistering, hard-rock Dead.
Estimated Prophet
Jan. 10, 1978
Shrine Auditorium

Very exploratory jam that eventually relaxes and dissolves into He’s Gone.
