1
Truckin'
Acoustic Truckin', with mystery piano player (Maybe Lagin, Nelson or the Loch Ness Monster for all I know - it just sounds great)
2
Wake Up Little Susie
I so wish they played this sweet gem more often a classic song with an awesome grateful dead spin.
4
Cocaine Habit Blues
Recording is not the best but it is a rare nugget and the music sounds trippy for an acoustic set.
3
Turn On Your Love Light
Truly an amazingly awesome version, with special guest David Crosby on guitar. A real true heady version with dead friend Crosby helping out the boys
2
Not Fade Away
Sounds suspiciously and happily similar to the 6/24/70 version. Firing on all cylinders.
3
Friend of the Devil
Early uptempo, shitkickingly good. These first ones are all worth mentioning. This one is fast and good bluegrass.
4
Easy Wind
Undoubtedly one of the greats. Everyone is on. Bobby solos, then Jerry schools the world, then at 7:03 sounds like D. Crosby steps in like Godzilla.

Sugar Magnolia
Early Sugar Mags this is great paced a little different than later, Really cool sounding. Recording not the greatest quality.
