The Wang Dang Doodle lyrics make this an unique Satisfaction, with Phil just rockin’ it, major power cords doesn’t’ hurt, sweet Brokedown after, give

The final vocals, “Run and See” give me goose bumps and the Garcia solo is also very good. I had this version from many years and lost it and always

Standing On The Moon

I love the interplay between Garcia’s lyrics and Branford’s sax, very sweet. Give it a listen and you will agree.

Baltimore Civic Center

Cool version, returning to the main theme middle jam is was unexpected, but not the only time they did it. 4/12/82 Nassau, Bobby even noted “If this don’t… if this don’t work, I don’t know…. it’s gotta work” and also the first time 5/1/ 80 Greensboro. I was at this Baltimore show and Nassau and I need to listen to all again before I vote. Many, many good things happened in Baltimore that crazy night, so I have no doubt the last time they tried it was the best.

Field House - Seneca College

Face melting, neuron frying jam, one of the best of ’77 in my book, so top ten overall. If you don’t’ know this version, you should Dick’s Picks 34 Bonus Tracks, give it a listen and vote.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 12, 1980
Swing Auditorium

Never had heard this version, thanks for the input Estimated. Love the few rifts of Mountain Jam, unique I believe. The SBD that is linked is OK, I like the audience sources better. I love 1980’s China> Rider, just nominated three from 1980 that weren’t among the over 100 listed. There are almost 50 nominated with only 1 vote, so hopefully people will start listening to what’s here and give their opinions. Still nobody is taking your advice Estimated, too bad it you love early 80’s Dead, this rocks. Just gave it another listen, Love it!!
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 29, 1977
Winterland Arena

Glad this one is high on the list. The final climax will leave you breathless, then the jam in to China Doll is just sublime. The whole show deserves another, then Vote, Dick's Picks #10.
