Another great version from the fall of ’79, give it a listen. Make sure you find the Charlie Miller_Rob Eaton SBD, very nice.

Boston Garden

Wow, How did the 1980 Boston Garden “Caution Don’t Stop…” version not get nominated, LISTEN Now, if you knew about it, you would vote, rivals 5/6/81.

Madison Square Garden

Very nice outtro jam, 9+ mins, almost reaching mammoth proportions on its way to what we thought would be a monstrous Other One, never quite got there

Truckin'

Augusta Civic Center

They totally screw up the lyrics, but once they hit “Get back Truckin’ On” wow it rocks, the first peak is very powerful, then a second peak.

Great 90's version for sure, the one with the most votes, yes, but the BEST ever hardly.

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

Great version, the bad cut in the SBD is hard to overlook, but give it a listen. Spring ’78 has some of the most impassioned singing by Garcia ever.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
May 11, 1978
Springfield Civic Center Arena

Very strong vocals by Weir, the middle jam is very long and the concluding vocals are exceptional, with Weir growling “My Lightning Too”, great version.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
April 12, 1978
Cameron Indoor Stadium

By far the most fun ever captured on video, chech out the Pete Thownsend windmills during Truckin.
Brown Eyed Women

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

Great Brown Eyen Women, vocals are sung with gusto and a great guitar run after “Drink down a bottle and you’re ready to kill” line. More songs from RPI should be on the list, it a GREAT show.
