1974 and Ship of Fools go together like peanut butter and jelly. Full of emotion. They're really giving their all in this.

Like the breaking of a dam, this just flows at a truly ferocious pace. Jerry is relentless in his playing, the second solo will knock your socks off.

Any '74 version of this tune is a treat. Incredibly lovely with great Keith lines. Billy sways.

Definitive for its time. The soundcheck gave us a preview, here's the full thing. Solid version.

Just a damn near perfect performance. Shocked not to see this one submitted. One of MANY highlights from this show.

Magical. Widely inventive and freedom personified in sound. Imaginative musicianship right here. Phil gets a gold star.

Off the rails. Might possibly be the best version I’ve ever heard. Absolutely relentless, viscous, and primal. An assault and attack on the senses that builds, and builds, AND BUILDS. Jerry traverses mountain tops before climbing too high and starts drifting away from our atmosphere plowing through hyperspace at light speed. Stupendously inventive rhythmic interplay between everyone. Mickey and Billy find their inner groove and absolute lay it down. The feedback section is the absolute stuff of legends. No return from this space, this train crash landed on a whole other planet leaving no survivors, only our souls to find their way back home. A brutal, nasty, electric carnival. A whirlwind of flashing colors that melts you to your core. Alarms flash, body and mind disintegrating. The unknown, the absolute edge of sound and music as we know it. Harmonious and Transformation near the end. Utter Annihilation. Another reason why I love the Grateful Dead.

Definitive William Tell segment that transitions into some absolutely heavy psychedelic landscapes. Jerry leads the way with some blistering licks that channel the true essence of the song. Playing at the absolute edge of oblivion.

The overtones bleeding out of Jerry's guitar before the jam begins absolutely makes this for me. This show has quickly become a top 5 for me because of the connections I've made with other people because of this Dutch Treat. A show I personally overlooked, I have now come to appreciate as one of the best of the year, and of all time. Lovely version that shoots you straight into the void with laser sharp precision.

Olé!
