Pretty Peggy O
June 4, 1977
The Forum

Powerful and incandescent. I’ll admit Peggy-O can sometimes bore me, but not this one!

He's Gone
July 28, 1973
Grand Prix Racecourse

Don't let sound quality issues prevent you from hearing this. As fresh and crisp as any of the other fine He's Gones from spring and summer.

Deal
July 28, 1973
Grand Prix Racecourse

They end up running through the “solo” section twice. Both times are as hot as you would expect for ’73.

They Love Each Other
Sept. 2, 1979
Augusta Civic Center

Brent goes funky with his solo, then Jerry goes lyrical.

Drums -> Space
Sept. 2, 1979
Augusta Civic Center

What sounds like a momentary Let It Grow tease in Space, if you’re listening for something in particular. Powerful and pure Grateful Dead.

Tennessee Jed
Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre

I’m on an upvoting spree this first set, which is to say — it’s all so good. Don’t skip any of the short songs on the way to the big jams.
Terrapin Station
Aug. 4, 1982
Kiel Auditorium

This is an exceptionally well-played Terrapin even before they get to the jam. With the jam, this is a reasonable contender for the Top 25. Brent shows off his jazz chops throughout.
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!
