I used to love 'bama openers. I think the Dead may have liked Maine just a bit.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
June 23, 1974
Jai-Alai Fronton

The Boston Blues comes after the best jam ever I agree, this one comes after the most intense jam ever. The transition is seamless
Comes A Time

Hershey Park Stadium

Heartfelt Set 1 version. Killer combo.
Morning Dew
June 18, 1983
Saratoga Performing Arts Center

This is a great and a most powerful Dew. Phil drops throughout reminiscent of Freedom '74. The band was all fired up and firing on all cylinders this night.
To Lay Me Down
Sept. 26, 1980
Warfield Theater

Heck no. This one deserves to be much higher. And possibly definitive.
