Tender, soothing, perfect. Brimming with firecracker... jerry rips a mean fret-flyer or two

down to business in the mines of emotion. Tight and incredible. A gem of a intuitive version with lots of rootsy charisma and swingin' euphoria..

Slow and serious. Mickey is masterful as is the overall tone control.Solo could have had more satisfying crescendo, fun lowkey set 1 vibe

gobsmackingly propulsive, stands with the best, most fluid and excitingly spritely stranger jams. Must-hear.

It's All Over Now Baby Blue

Civic Auditorium

heart wrenching, Jerry is awesome. I used to play this one in my first band from 8th grade. Will never forget the handful of older guys looking up in surprised curiosity when I started singing the first lines.
Fire On The Mountain

Sphinx Theatre

Tremendous version of this. I think that this show is immensely underrated.
He's Gone

Five Seasons Center

"This one's for Paul, the rainbow Bud" Lesh is blasted off heinekens. Vocals on this He's Gone are amazing. Nice Other One jam to follow. Emotional and gorgeous, activated

awesome bust-out. 1973 arrangement, tempo is kicked up a notch though. Badass version
Morning Dew

Winterland Arena

this here might be Godchaux's finest hour with the Dead.... Exemplary morning dew. That groove they get into by the end of the song just destroys me. Phil bombs aplenty. A fine way to spend a rainy day like today would be a handful of joints, some of you heads out there on this site, a nice big flat screen TV and the Grateful Dead Movie.
