Kings Beach Bowl

Dick's Picks 22 version, Lake Tahoe. Smooth as silk. Jerry plays fast and with a great tone. VERY fluid.

Autzen Stadium

Very hot. Long, jammed-out ending. Great stuff from Summer '90

Gimme Some Lovin'
June 15, 1985
Greek Theater

The entire show is PERFECTION, but you've got to hear the transition from Wheel into Gimme Some Lovin. They just nail it. Best version ever

Uncle John's Band
Feb. 5, 1970
Fillmore West

Very mellow version, almost an Island feel. A long, slow, jammed-out version. Tasty leads from Garcia. Electric with an acoustic feel.

Madison Square Garden

A "Perfect" version. Drums, vocals, guitar leads, bass... everyone is on-point!

Death Don't Have No Mercy
Nov. 11, 1967

No fat! Powerful, bluesy, and soulful. Is Jerry playing a Les Paul?

This should be higher! This is the *best* Spanish Jam the Grateful Dead ever played
