It Must Have Been The Roses
July 8, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

One of the most passionately sung Roses out there, all the Jerry ballads from these two nights at Red Rocks should be on the list.

It Must Have Been The Roses
May 6, 1978
Patrick Gymnasium - University of Vermont

The entire 1st set from UVM ’78 should be in the list, this Roses is another of the gems from this set.

The vocals are very impassioned, Jerry wailing away on the final, Donna in sync. LOVE this version, check it out.

Winterland Arena

SMOKIN’ 2nd SOLO- This must rank up with the best of '77. Since the WL Box set was released, you should have listened, hit the link, listen NOW!

Black Peter
April 14, 1978
Cassell Coliseum - Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University

The “Run and See” portion of this Black Peter is off the charts, the best I have heard. The Charlie Miller SB transfer is outstanding, give it a listen. There needs to be an official release from the Spring ’78 Virginia shows, (2 Virgina , 1 West VA) all are very good.
Aiko Aiko
May 15, 1977
St. Louis Arena

The first one is a good version, coming out of St Stephens. I sure many thought it was Not Fade Away, which they then seamlessly transition into after Aiko. Great sequence, give it a listen.
Gimme Some Lovin'
June 25, 1985
Blossom Music Center

Would have nominated this version, I Love It!!
Eyes Of The World
Nov. 5, 1977
Community War Memorial Auditorium

This one needs more votes, you should have it, Dick's Picks #34, you know the saying "When Phil is on..."
Eyes Of The World
Sept. 3, 1977
Raceway Park

This is when I “Got It”, my third show, up all night started moving forward after the break, found a milk crate about 100’ from the massive stage, the Half-Step in the first set gave me chills, but this Eyes just transcended space and time that day, (It was my first dance song at my wedding, some 23 years later) and continues to inspire me.
