At :30 Pig switches from tambourine to organ and we're off! These early '71 performances showcase Kreutzmann reveling in sweet space. Driving.

Capitol Theater

A delicate, tight, searching super early version of a staple. Kruetzmann plays it light and springy and that 1971 Lesh caramel bass guitar!

If you know this smooth customer of a show, you know how drynamic [yes, I typed that] and user friendly this TJ is. An always welcome visitor.

Sugaree

Auditorium Theatre

Few things better than a June '76 Sugaree. Garcia with the first Travis Bean just sketches with the lightest, barest of precious metal filaments.

Paramount Northwest Theatre

Summer '72 Jed: Sweet dynamics & precision engineering. Weir & Kreutzmann stir it up during Garcia's guitar break.

Playin' In The Band

Oklahoma City Music Hall

If you like the electric guitar, this is a highlight. Hear how two great and entirely different guitar players work off each other. Oh yeah - and the rest of the group is right up there in the rarified air. This rendition excels completely - not a surprise coming from this tour.
The Other One
July 17, 1976
Orpheum Theatre

Proves that the group could have a light touch and swing w/two drummers. Garcia's firefly guitar sets the tone, however. Another sweet '76 Other One in the bank.

Boston Music Hall

A beautiful, smooth version. Godchaux's accent are dope. Garcia's silvery guitar break is sublime.
