Just another great '77 Prophet. Fascinating to see the transformation of this as a jam vehicle throughout this tour.

This entire Palladium run is a Keith clinic.

Queen Jane Approximately

Hampton Coliseum

Very nice version from the Mothership.
Let It Grow

Providence Civic Center

Serious version worth a serious listen. This should be WAY higher. The song-as-composition is featured here in a really nice rendition, but the song-as-jam-vehicle is also explored to the max. The band meanders through every aspect of the song.

Jai-Alai Fronton

Truly incredible stuff. The AUD on this (Moore's, I believe) is worth a listen.
We Can Run
March 29, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

Worth listening to if for no other reason that to hear what the Dead would sound like as a parody of themselves. Falls at just the right part of the set, and Jerry is clearly chomping at the bit all night.

Winterland Arena

Seconded, and since no one's mentioned it, wonderfully clear recording with great balance. I don't usually worship at the alter of '73, but I love these "HCS."
