I Need A Miracle

The Worcester crowd is really into it. Another hot version. Aren't they almost always hot?

Big Boss Man

Centrum

Jerry singing Big Boss Man to open the show - and nobody has mentioned this yet?

Sugar Magnolia
April 25, 1983
The Spectrum

This era is overlooked and underappreciated. This - like most around this time - cooks.

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Spokane Coliseum

Love the restraint Jerry plays with during the second instrumental break. Very measured and disciplined.

Olympia Halle

Bob's rap starts off with an indirect mention of Pigpen.

It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry
Aug. 18, 1991
Shoreline Amphitheatre

With this, every version the Dead played is here.
Big River
March 19, 1977
Winterland Arena

They hand the stage over to Keith and he runs with it. He is kicking some serious butt here.
Let It Rock
Dec. 31, 1975
Keystone

Jerry hated Nicky Hopkins. Nicky wanted to talk between every song and Jerry wanted him to shut up. Jerry got his way.
Next Time You See Me
March 5, 1972
Winterland Arena

In the instrumental break, Jerry, Keith and Pig are all into it.
Bertha
March 5, 1972
Winterland Arena

Even Charlie Miller couldn't fix this one. It sounds like they're playing in a tunnel. Yes - the quality gets better, but it's really lousy during Bertha.
