This is a real nice version of Baby Blue to close this '84 show. Super yummy Dylan cover.

"Come to Daddy on an inside straight!" Jerry belts it out nicely on this one. Good version!

I'm listening to this one in headphones right now & it's super cool. Dead were ahead of their time with experimental, ambient, electronica.

Let It Grow

William and Mary College Hall

Very cool Let It Grow with some amazing jazz horns accompanying the boys. Truly unique. Underrated, I'd say!

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Wow, I love this Other One! So cool, trippy and different. One of a kind!

Jerry's soloing in this one, is extra hot. He tries to steal it from Bobby. Smokin' version with as beautiful tone from a guitar as I've ever heard (Wolf, I think) and a hot, off the rails jam at the end.

It doesn't get much better than this!

The Other One>Stella Blue. Damn, this is so good. Should be rated higher!
