Shocked that this hasn't been listed! Great energy with some decimating lines from Jerry and Bobby is screaming his big ol heart out. Great version.

Jerry and Bobby create a beautiful space before TOO. A conversation in strings. Billy and Mickey create primal, carnivorous music. Hunting music.

What a crown jewel Pretty Peggy O can be. A truly tender version that washes away all my worries. These 74 versions are quite special.

The Dead take the Parisians through a cowboys surrealist day dream. Check out how both Keith and Jerry are utterly locked into the music.

Blossoms and blooms like a shining red rose. I really love the energy for this show.

No main riff to bridge between China>Rider, BUT, hearing some organ and hearing the transition jammed out oh so subtly is a real treat. Nice version.

When the coke was pure. Also what a fun and amazing Bertha. Jerry’s playing this show…my god.

Is the is really that low? Jerry is like a skittering June bug flying a million miles a second. Absolutely stunning phrasing and an incredible extended jam towards the end that transitions into a solid Deal. What a version. Needs much more love.

One of my all time China>Riders. I would listen to this on repeat 24/7 every hour of the day. Impeccably executed. This show, and I don’t know if this is just me, has some of the most unique phrasing from Jerry I’ve ever heard. The tone, the approach, the creativity and the power, this is so underrated and one of my all time favorite jams. Again, Jerry’s phrasing is a masterclass for all musicians. He roars likes lion and shines as bright as the sun but at times his sound can be ghastly, like a phantom haunting the stage. Ethereal and otherworldly is his playing and it lays the ground work of how the sound can evolve and changes at a whim. The Rider in particular is just absolutely superb. Jerry has fun with Billy and Mickey allowing the music to bounce and dance like grass in the wind. Just a sublime version and is some of my favorite Grateful Dead music of all time.

77 Sugaree’s. Can you really go wrong? I’m particular picky with mine but this has the GOODS. Jerry is playing beyond himself and is truly with the music. Subtle yet so sharp. Endearing and so compassionate. Chills.
