A great vesion from ’71 with a unique Darkness Darkness transition jam after the “We bid you Goodnight” coda. Very deep, spiritual interplay.

Madison Square Garden

A Major Break-Out, you must hear the crown reaction, none of the '83 versions really stand out, but this needs to be heard.

Great version from a great show, I love how Jerry growls the “Last fair deal…” line great stuff, foreshadowing the Werewolves to come.

The first time I saw Aiko Aiko, great singing by Garcia, clearly having a blast. RPI is an underrated show, with many, many highlights.

Let It Grow
May 14, 1978
Providence Civic Center

30 Trips show, heard this Let it Grow on the Tapers Section back in 08', took a few years to vote it into my top 10, it is worthy, very patient jam, like the entire show and then whooom, hyper space, (just saw The Force Awakens) the finale is awesome, check it out. The entire shown is worthy.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Nov. 2, 1977
Field House - Seneca College

Very hot, the jam after the Supplication vocals is amazing, incendiary. Should be voted higher.

Fall 77’ is where it is at with another ripping “Might as Well” This one released as bonus material on Dick’s Picks Vol 34.
Might As Well

Evans Field House, Northern Illinois University

Hand’s down the best of the best, what a way to open a show, Since we just had a Fall 77’ official release (Dave’s Pick Vol 12 Colgate University) , it may be awhile till this show is given is rightful due. Wow, just listened to it again.
