Dire Wolf
March 29, 1991
Nassau Coliseum

First Dire Wolf of the Vince era - and the playing kills as always. Just a line is butchered but a great rendition of this campfire song regardless

Vince only - and he does quite a fine job. Jerry helps pack a punch as always

Nice first set choice - Jerry flubs some lyrics but the playing is great. Note that this is a Vince only '91 show and he kills

Billy drives this one throughout - great GDTRFB
Stella Blue
May 18, 1977
Fox Theatre

The outro jam makes me want to tear up...forever grateful (~):)
The Other One
May 18, 1977
Fox Theatre

From blazing hot to spacey wonder, this Other One packs it all. The Jerry spacey jam at the end leading into Stella is most enjoyable.
Dark Star
Aug. 24, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

Excellent Star with my favorite part being the jam after about 20 minutes in, veers into lots of fun territory and Phil's tone beginning to shape like how it would sound in '73
