Hot outro resolves into a brief contemplative space before yielding to Drums.

Sparkling, energetic version. The first set of the Nassau run is a great one!

Winterland Arena

Grooves smartly with excellent contributions from each member. The whole first set is hot and worth a listen.

Jerry and Donna sound great in this uptempo version. Jerry's solo smokes too, of course.

The Spectrum

Sweet bluesy outro jam. Spring ’78 was very good to poor Peter.

Some stellar contributions from Keith here -- but I guess the same could be said for most '73 Dead.

Lloyd Noble Center - University of Oklahoma

Mid-song jamming breaks are unusually long. Lovely and relaxed.

Just keeps going and going! Jerry tears this one up! Insane, really. And... it's back on Archive as of April 2015. :-)
Big River

Field House - Seneca College

Jerry just burns this sucker to the ground. Wowee zowee.
Playin' In The Band

Strand Lyceum

Lots more "Main Ten" jamming than most later versions would have. Gives this one a different, more understated feel than some of the pure delirium versions. That may be good or bad depending on your perspective, but this is certainly a great version.
