Boston Music Hall

Jerry's vocals are rarely stronger. At one point he's growling it out like he's spittin' nails.

Boston Music Hall

Kicking off a killer 2nd set, with a beautiful outro and a smooth smooth jam.

In spite of some tuning problems, this one cooks. This whole set showcases Jerry's fast frets. Great stuff.

Sweet master class on background soloing with Jerry's lickety-split runaway desperado fretwork backing Bobby up.

Boston Music Hall

This starts with understated, almost hesitant steps, then builds into a towering emotional rage. Its arc fits its words. Great stuff.

The Other One

The Mosque

Beautiful and unforgetable Jerry solo jam transition into a killer Wharf Rat sandwich.
The Same Thing
March 18, 1967
Winterland Arena

Deep and dark Blues roots Dead with a tight and hot jam. All the reasons to listen to '67 are right here.
Dancin' in the Streets

Winterland Arena

You can get genuinely lost in this jam. Seems infinite while you're in it. As Proud Walker Justin put it, a fine bit of acid rock, indeed.
Caution

Tivolis Koncertsal

Opens up in whole new directions suggesting what might have been had Pigpen stayed with us into the next era. A real gem.
