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.

Cold Rain and Snow
Dec. 26, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

Love this version, Phil is a beast after the vocal finale. Weir also contributes some nice rhythm, (better than the slide in ’78 IMHO), give it a listen. Is this the best one out there?
Cold Rain and Snow
May 11, 1978
Springfield Civic Center Arena

This is my personal favorite from shows that I saw, and it was the first Cold Rain as well. Always a treat to open a show, and this version laid the ground work for an amazing night in Springfield. Just listen how Jerry growls / moans / oohhs through the coda. Makes me smile every time I hear it.
Here Comes Sunshine

Dane County Coliseum

Very sweet version indeed, not a long as some of the monster versions to come later in the fall, would have loved to see the evolution of the Wake of the Flood songs live as they progressed through an amazing year for the Dead. Great time to be a Wisconsin Dead Head, two great shows in an 8-month period. This version needs more votes, give it a listen.
Brown Eyed Women

Hartford Civic Center

Love Spring ’77, Love this version, very smooth indeed, To Terrapin, Hartford ’77 released in 2009. This was my second show, with one of the best openers Bertha> Good Lovin’> Sugaree, all Heady Versions.

GDConnoisseur’s video link is not valid anymore, Voodoonola2 has the entire show, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlEb2CPPs-E. Good version, but I’ll take any 77-78 Brown Eyed over this one.
