this one is a gimme for Hornsby's jumpstart chops which makes for a devastating affair with jer and the guys lockin' in.

Drums -> Space

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Laconic and textural, devils hang loose. Chasms of endless spirals of blank fear only to be boingy wackjob cyberjazz, menacing, for OG 90's heads

Uncle John's Band

Shoreline Amphitheatre

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

Blazing steamroller, Hornsby, flutterbird PITB. Elegant, direct, emblematic of the late style.

Let It Grow
Oct. 29, 1977
Evans Field House, Northern Illinois University

Genuinely really gives me the shakes.... This is a big song. I've been binging a lot of 73-74 gigs recently, and it's shows like this that really show me how much Mickey Hart means to the group. Thunderous rendition with uber Jerry shredding. Bobby's rhythm parts are burning too. I mean everybody is great, really.

The perfect encore for the perfect night, the hired guns for twilight's heartbreak and the eternal songs of the mysteries of morning.

Wow. In one fell swoop, Jerry and the guys imbue the night's proceedings with a sense of steep, and heart-felt pathos. Paisley tom, reporting for duty.

Spicy sweet chili taco Bertha shell, and thick rockin' Good lovin' jam fillin'.
Deal
April 15, 1978
William and Mary College Hall

12 votes for this? A totally exceptional, radically shreddin' 8-minute Deal. The "36 Deal" as some might say... the energy is a must. Truly a gobsmacking blend of prime raucous end of set 1 energy and kick. A dose of plodding heavy rock after liquidy jazzy let it grow jamming, this one smacks hard with wholloping arcs and cresting soaring peaks
