U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
June 30, 1974
Civic Center

Powerful U.S. Blues that veers into a solid Truckin'. Seamless transition between the two

Dire Wolf
Sept. 16, 1987
Madison Square Garden

Sublime Dire Wolf - Jerry kills it with perfect vocals and excellent playing. Best of '87 if not the entire post-coma era

Sugar Magnolia
Sept. 17, 1973
Onondaga County War Memorial

Not the most remarkable Sugar Mag BUT it has horns + Jerry sings the first verse

Drums
May 18, 1977
Fox Theatre

Really fun Drums out of Eyes that leads into one of the most fiery Other One's of the year ('76-'77 O1's are quite mellow). Do not skip at all costs

Aiko Aiko
June 14, 1984
Red Rocks Amphitheater

Rockin' show opener with the band in full form. Everyone can be heard nicely in the Soundboard mix

Feel Like A Stranger
April 4, 1991
The Omni

LTGTR>Stranger Opener, classic. If you're not a fan of the Vince sound this might be a little off but its HOT regardless
Loose Lucy
Dec. 27, 1990
Coliseum Arena

Strong West Coast (best coast) Loose Lucy. Really builds up till the end, wonderful version
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 24, 1991
Sandstone Amphitheatre

Phil leads the band. Everyone contributes which can be a bit overwhelming but a nice straightforward China>Rider nonetheless
