Truckin'
Jan. 24, 1971
Seattle Center Arena

Easily overlooked show - the Truckin' opener is a giant tidal wave red carpet.

Not Fade Away
March 21, 1972
Academy of Music

Picture Perfeck Academy of Music NFA! Kreutzmann and Weir scoot this gem along.

The Other One
Dec. 12, 1970
Santa Rosa Fairgrounds

Adventure soundtrack - the group plays out a number of scenes. Garcia's the acrobatic narrator for the most part. Superb and interactive.

Thelma Theater

Big and round. Lesh is the wacked-out chauffeur. What a cool, bizarre run.

Big River
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum

A strike-zone era Big River. Smooth & prickly.

St. Stephen
Dec. 29, 1969
Boston Tea Party

A great revisit. This one's atomic.
Playin' In The Band
Feb. 3, 1978
Dane County Coliseum

My favorite thing about this is probably its patience. It's very naturally spacey. Like me.
Eyes Of The World
Feb. 3, 1978
Dane County Coliseum

Prime real estate. Great pace - as good as it gets in '78. At the level of the best '77s.
Samson and Delilah
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

The drums are ON IT!
The Other One
April 21, 1969
The Ark

A favorite version from a favorite run.
