Red Rocks Amphitheatre

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.

Deal

Nassau Coliseum

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.

This hot, rocking versions tops off an amazing Halloween show, check it out and vote, a great AUD recording is available.

Here Comes Sunshine
Oct. 30, 1973
Kiel Auditorium

Another great version from the fall of ’73, in the opener slot to boot, can’t wait to hear the rest of the show.

Winterland Arena

Outstanding version, just silky smooth. Nov / Dec ’73 has my favorite versions of HCS, this one needs more votes. On par with 11/14 San Diego and 11/17 UCLA versions.
Shakedown Street
Oct. 31, 1979
Nassau Coliseum

Another great version from the fall of ’79, the jam builds very slow and steady, driven by some great keyboards by Brent, but the band never peaks like 10/25 New Haven, but still very good. This version should have more votes, give it a listen.
Shakedown Street
Oct. 25, 1979
New Haven Coliseum

The best Shakedown from the fall of ’79 issued on RT Vol. 1 No, 1, sadly the only song from a great show that made it on this Road Trips, every show on the Sept & Oct East Coast tours are worth seeking out.
Jack Straw
July 2, 1988
Oxford Plains Speedway

Phil was definitely sending a message, “Wake Up Jerry” after a lackadaisical Iko Iko opener. The mix was also weird at the beginning, hard to get your levels right with Phil hammering it home. A must listen for any Jack Straw / Phil fan but not really not on par with some of the other amazing Jack Straw’s from ’78 thru 1980, even a few from ’84 beat this one IMHO.
