A Garcia solo worth savoring. Very special.

Let It Grow

Greek Theater

Ferocious but not reckless. Tremendous feeling and poise. The show as a whole seems woefully underrated.

Jerry soars from the first note while Brent's compI ng subtly shades darker. A mesmerizing gyre. Check out the fine Keshavan/Miller AUD.

Roller coaster outro rises, drops, and swerves again and again, led by Jerry at lightning speed.

I love the way Brent contributes to this delicate but sprightly Ship. Magical.

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.

Winterland Arena

Could this be the best version of the year? It's possible! It's a generous, nearly spotless rendition that unfurls melody after melody.

Community War Memorial Auditorium

11/2/77 and this have got to be the best consecutive versions of this tune played post-'74. Hot damn!

Yes, it is!
