Off the hook, plain and simple...Great end to a sick nasty second set

Thunderous...one of my favorite recordings because it gives the feeling of being there.

Jerry is gonna steal your wife, and this version will steal your face. AMAZING video to be found on YouTube

I think I mixed up the dates. 8/6/74 and 8/4/76 are both beyond epic, but I think my description on 8/6 version is more apt for THIS version. So laid back, yet non-stop hard-hitting exhilaration. Only the Dead...
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Roscoe Maples Pavilion - Stanford University

Wavy GraVy of course is what I meant
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Roosevelt Stadium

Worthy. Slow, sinister grooving' intro, Phil means business. This show might be the filthiest funkiest grungiest groovinest show from top-to-bottom the boys (and girl) ever did
Me and My Uncle

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Truly fun. I tried explaining the irony of the Stayin' Alive tease to my Russian roommate, to no avail. The teases throughout really are spectacularly fun. No better word. This show is pretty unbelievable, by the way. A romp, indeed.
Jack Straw

Nassau Coliseum

Fair enough: My opinion is this: Jack Straw is a classic song and there are many beautiful shades to the song throughout the years, and as such there are many incredible versions to dig. Much love back. "We can share it..."
