The Fox theater

OK, I'll say it: "I can't believe this isn't on here." Majestic, powerful MD. Jerry on a mission. Bobby playing clippety-cloppety sounds in the coda.

Beautiful searching, inquisitive solos, plus you get to hear Jerry telling us to get yourself a parking lot

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Jerry kills the middle solo and the interplay between him and Weir at the end is fantastic
Mexicali Blues

Nassau Coliseum

Brilliant contortions in the solo.
Playin' In The Band

The Spectrum

The jam after Ship of Fools will make you go wait a minute, and replay it from the beginning.
New Minglewood Blues

Golden Hall, Community Concourse

I love it when Jerry plays angry. Check out the power chords. The Rango aud is incredible sounding.
