Wow this version smokes, only an (Great) AUD recording is available, but Jerry is possessed, kinds of blows up at the end, but the middle jam rocks.

Not surprised this version is not listed, only an AUD recording is available, make sure you get the Space_Wharf Rat into, Phil is divine.

Great version there’s a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pf4B-p3B3K0 During the jam the video focuses on Phil and he is clearly having a blast.

The bust out version, 1st one since the Melk Weg, what a run at the BCT. Give it a listen.

The Spectrum

Long, long closing jam, major Phil bombs and fiery strumming by both Weir and Garcia, give it a listen. Road Trips No.1 Vol 1 Full Show.

Casey Jones
Oct. 2, 1977
Paramount Theatre

Now this is what I was hoping from this site, a great version of a classic song that I have never heard. This is indeed one of the best Casey Jones ever played. The rust was just shrugged off, (first one since ’74) and a layered middle jam, (when Jerry spaced the vocals) just flows, 4 or 5 times around with Keith even taking a turn is amazing, the closing vocals are also very strong. Thanks for the insight.

The best Sugar Magnolia I saw live, love the aboriginal rap at the end, wonder if they are right and this is all “Just a Dream”.

Dane County Coliseum

A close second to 04-24 Normal, the two best from '78 for sure
Dancin' in the Streets
May 11, 1978
Springfield Civic Center Arena

My first Dancin’ and one of the best all time. The final vocal jam makes me smile every time I hear it.
Stella Blue
Jan. 11, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

This one was when I got “Stella” probably too high for my first two, 1978-05-05_Dartmouth and 1978-05-11_Springfield and it became my favorite Jerry ballad for my remaining years on tour. I love when they bring it to a completion, not cut off to soon and this one soars.
