Train rippin' down the hot coals of the 1973 track.

Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

It Must Have Been The Roses

Wembley Arena

Jerry tearing the standards book asunder with this elegant poetic brilliance

Big River

Wembley Arena

For a few minutes wembley in '90 becomes the fillmore in the summer of 1970, the way the Dead just slide into a no-nonsense Big River. Shivers

Smokin' and refined version of this deep cut, on "All Hallow's Eve" as a chap might say

It's All Over Now Baby Blue
Dec. 28, 1983
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
Sept. 16, 1978
Sphinx Theatre

Tremendous version of this. I think that this show is immensely underrated.
He's Gone
July 4, 1984
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

Capital Centre

awesome bust-out. 1973 arrangement, tempo is kicked up a notch though. Badass version
Morning Dew
Oct. 18, 1974
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.
