Space
April 3, 1982
The Scope

This brief Space is more of an extended Jerry-led intro to NFA, and it's way cool. This show is out of sight.

Bird Song
June 13, 1994
Memorial Stadium

Adventurous, somewhat dissonant jam from a fairly strong first set. Fans of Welnick-era improv should check this out.

Its All Over Now
Nov. 10, 1985
Meadowlands Arena

Rowdy but still sharply played. Check out this superb first set.

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.

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
Oct. 17, 1974
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.
Althea
Oct. 18, 1983
Cumberland County Civic Center

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

One of the best.
