Drums -> Space
March 26, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

Freaky electro Drums. In Space, listen for Bobby’s wild playing shortly before Jerry segues into Miracle.

Me and Bobby McGee
March 24, 1973
The Spectrum

Tight, energetic, heartfelt rendition of this era staple.

The Other One
April 9, 1989
Freedom Hall

A kaleidoscopic Other One is the apex of a very well-played second set.

Looks Like Rain
Dec. 27, 1977
Winterland Arena

Emphatic, even ferocious. Check it out.

Cassidy

Winterland Arena

Thunderous energy to complement the rest of this hard-rocking Winterland run.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

Commenting purely on the audio: Anyone checking out this show should hear the Dusborne matrix, which is much livelier and more detailed than the muddy-sounding Dave’s Picks release.
To Lay Me Down
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum

Altogether almost faultless, this one climaxes nicely with Jerry’s solo.
Black Throated Wind
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum

Fabulous performance all around!
Loser
June 9, 1977
Winterland Arena

The dynamics and attention to detail really impress. What a first set!
The Other One
June 8, 1977
Winterland Arena

This is a great version for the year, which is to say -- unremarkable by '70-'73 standards but better than almost all versions to follow.
