The Cryptical Reprise is a beast, this whole show could be nominated, Dick’s Picks Vol. 8, listen again and vote.

River Bend Music Center

Great Show, 2nd “Cryptical Envelopment” in 13-years, Jerry’s voice is not in the best shape, but well worth a listen.

The ‘Bust Out” version from the Greek, still remember someone throwing a huge basket full of rose pedals in the air when Jerry hit the first notes.

Sadly, I must also nominate the last one played, from what was the best “Stadium” show I saw. RIP Brent.

Another great version from Spring ’90, got to love the MIDI tone of Garcia’s guitar.

I agree, best of the 80’s for sure, taped this from the 15th row, the whole place was going ape shit.

Hartford Civic Center

I had hypothesized that if ’77 was the band’s peak year, and the East Coast spring tour was the best of the year, then maybe the pinnacle is this Sugaree, the peak of the second jam. All building to that one moment, crystallized on tape and time, I was there, this Sugaree rocks!

My first show, one of the best Sugaree’s ever. Love how different each solo is. This version just took my breath away, we were just settling in and wham, right out of the gate, after a rockin’ Promised Land, LOVE this Sugaree, check it out. If Dave ever gets back to a Spring ’77 release, New Haven should be it

Patrick Gymnasium - University of Vermont

The second Jerry solo is phenomenal, the whole band is just cranking up the effort, even Weir’s slide it good. The vocals are very impassioned, LOVE this version, check it out.
Stella Blue
May 11, 1978
Springfield Civic Center Arena

Why only one vote? This is clearly one of the best Stella's of 78’ right after Rupp and Winterland, when has Jerry sung with more emotion? I love the final guitar furry, great stuff. Come on Dark Star, “Transitive Axis”, vote for some great Stella’s.
