Ending rocker, second song of the encore from an all-around great set II.

Manor Downs

In the middle of a powerful set II, and the move to Truckin' comes out sweetly from the 7/8 ending jam

Superior version. Listen and hear why.

Wharf Rat

St. Louis Arena

Surprised this isn't on here yet. At times sweet, raging, tender, and spacy.

Encore from another great '77 show. Garcia just smiles in the verse, and the end is heavy. Encore of my favorite come-down set ending.

Morning Dew

I've been conditioned to hear that transition out of Eyes into China Doll (and for a second it sounded like they weren't sure which one they were going to hit). It's a yowza of a Dew!
Eyes Of The World

They got the groove right on.
Me and Bobby McGee

Baltimore Civic Center

This is one of those instances where Bobby's cowboy song fits just right into what's going on in the set, and Garcia's particularly sensitive behind him.
Wharf Rat

When they get the tempo of Wharf Rat just right, it's eerie how similar it sounds to Dark Star.
Truckin'
March 26, 1973
Baltimore Civic Center

Killer stuff. The transition and jam on the WRS material are all-time.
