Darkness Jam
May 7, 1970
DuPont Gym - MIT

The first one, (maybe not, unheard tapes are being released Dave’s Picks Vol 6), this Darkness Jam is in the middle of an amazing Lovelight.

Darkness Jam
July 31, 1971
Yale Bowl, Yale University

Starting at the 7:55 minute mark of GDTR, again very short, but a beautiful Darkness Jam. On RT Vol. 1 No. 3, give it a listen.

He's Gone
Nov. 4, 1979
Civic Center

Very sublime into by Lesh start this soulful He’s Gone. The jam that follows breaks down to pure chaos, Fall ’79 rules again.

Morning Dew
Sept. 17, 1982
Cumberland County Civic Center

Hard to believe this version has not been nominated, one of the beat from ’82, Jerry in strong voice, Phil bombs. Good matrix out now as well.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Nov. 2, 1977
Field House - Seneca College

This one is now released on the bonus disk on Dave’s Picks Vol 12, we almost have the entire show. If a shame cause if should be heard as it should, as complete show, as this is a fine show. With a very fine Scarlet>Fire, probably ranked where is should be in top twenty for 77’, but then I imagine all Scarlet>Fire’s from 77’ have been nominated.
Cold Rain and Snow
Nov. 4, 1977
Cotterell Gym - Colgate University

1st version of 77’, Jerry slams into it right out of Samson, no drums closing, no final vocal refrain, right into Cold Rain. Great show, Great version. Just released on Dave’ Pick’s Vol 12 and should have some more votes. This is the first night of one of the best weekend runs in the Dead’s history, Check all out “Colgate-Rochester-Binghamton” should have been released as a box set, throw in Toronto as well.
Candyman
March 24, 1988
Omni Coliseum

I was at this show as well, one of my definitive “Late Inning” moments, Jerry had everyone’s attention.
Sing Me Back Home
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

My favorite version, from one of the best shows. Will now need to give 5/26/72 a listen.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 1, 1979
