Loose and loud - garage band city here! Tempo all over the road but nice and fast for the jam.

Big time bluesy show so Brent's train song fits into the night Jerry's vox is burnt but good energy this night.

Brent wakes everybody up with his B3 and then Jerr gets all sprightly on the jam - nice later one.

Jerry does some sweet bending and carving on this one - the band is in step on this one.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Greek Theatre - University of California

Ack! this is tight not quite as crazoid as my favorite 4/19/84.. but very similar. Same year so makes sense.
The Other One

The CA Earthquake is just massive and only played twice I think - would nominate it in a heartbeat. Closed the 1st set and then they come out to party with a Hey Pocky. Watch Jerry tell a little story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zkbm0uEU2w
Cryptical Envelopment
May 29, 1969
Robertson Gym, U.C.S.B.

The beat down starts at 3:10 and does not let up until the band pounds the audience into dust.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Aug. 29, 1980
The Spectrum

RD's are locked down tight, Phil is strapped and Jerry's got an extra clip - they crush this one and then throw in a sweet AWBYGN cherry.. yes please. While not 71-72 this is premo for 80's.
She Belongs To Me
Nov. 8, 1985
Community War Memorial Auditorium

Jerry singing Dylan - ain't nothin better...'cept maybe the Indy 500.
