Surprised this one hasn’t been nominated, a great version with impassioned Garcia vocals and lead runs, give it a listen. Love the vocal coda as well.

Phil's Earthquake Space needs to be listed, funny, scary, bizarre. With the Raven space the following night in Baltimore, two great shows in a row.

You can tell it’s going to be a good one when Garcia belts out the early “If I told bout all that went down…” line with vim and vigor.

The Music Never Stopped
Oct. 21, 1983
Worcester Centrum

I love how Phil lays back for the first few bars, then Bam! slams it home. The middle jam in the version is what make is so special, give it a listen you won’t be disappointed.

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

This version needs more votes. Many, (if not all ’77-’78) versions have a smoking / fanning finale, but this version has the most intense middle jam. Jerry starts this amazing run, almost too fast, as he misses a few notes, but it is breathtaking as they continue to jam and then in unison, nail the return to the main melody.
Ship of Fools

Huntington Civic Center

I agree, this is a great version, after Jerry’s bout with laryngitis, the Spring of 78 through Red Rocks has some of his most impassioned singing ever.
Ship of Fools
July 8, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

One of the most passionately sung Ship of Fools ever played, all the Jerry ballads from these two nights at Red Rocks should be on the list.

I was with Rob when he made this tape and when they finish LLR, we look at each other and just smiled, nodded and said WOW! Great version, the China>Rider that follows is also very good, give it a listen
