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

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

Seemingly looser and jammier than some, with some great musical conversations.

Slick, efficient Garcia solo, plus some cool flourishes by the Godchauxs.

Perfectly phrased and chosen melody lines from Jerry. Another astonishing FOTD of the era.

Mason's Children
Jan. 3, 1970
Fillmore East
Easily one of the tightest, fiercest versions of the song I’ve heard.
Deal
March 10, 1981
Madison Square Garden
I expect that this one will get a lot more votes after people hear the official release. It’s fiery and also has excellent phrasing and more Phil than some early ’80s shows.
Space
Aug. 6, 1982
St. Paul Civic Center
This is an incredible Space, both because of the Other One/Eleven jam and because of the meltdown before.

Fantastic second set!
Promised Land
June 22, 1976
Tower Theatre
Jerry’s playing is extremely exuberant on this one! Great version of the best Berry tune.
