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

Philadelphia Civic Arena

Zippy, choogling BIODTL with a great groove.

Space

Charlotte Coliseum

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

Dupree's Diamond Blues

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.

Black Throated Wind
Oct. 17, 1974
Winterland Arena

I’m not sure if this is *Bobby’s* best BTW — probably not — but it might be Jerry’s best BTW.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

Winterland Arena

Titanic version, somehow ranked third among versions from this run. Well worth checking out.
Greatest Story Ever Told
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

What a thing hearing GSET this vividly rendered, undimmed by the 10 years since its debut.

This show needs more love. Fantastic playing and *big* peaks here.
Brokedown Palace
Dec. 10, 1973
Charlotte Coliseum

One of the best.
