Playin' In The Band
Oct. 17, 1972
Fox Theatre

Where has this one been hiding? Everything works in this Playin' - absolutely should carry more rep. Just spectacular (my Dad's new favorite word).
New Potato Caboose
Feb. 14, 1968
Carousel Ballroom

A very pleasant re-visit. And DS67 is right: toothless crone is a highlight.
Cryptical Envelopment
Feb. 14, 1968
Carousel Ballroom

A bracing kick in the teeth, this'n. Great, great show.
Stella Blue
March 21, 1986
Hampton Coliseum

It's a CRAZY version. Cathartic.
The Other One
May 31, 1969
McArthur Court, University of Oregon

Garcia is just blow torching everything. Slash & burn guitar. You barely notice that Hart can't find the 1 at different points. The rest of the band is so primed, it doesn't matter.
