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

Rocking, loose great version. Ending jam does indeed go all over the place.
Sugaree
May 28, 1977
Hartford Civic Center

Amazing just when you think Jerry can't come up with one more thought during these solos. He does. This really is a great Sugaree, maybe the true highlight of a show full of them.
Alabama Getaway

Oakland Auditorium

Most jamming version. Jerry just goes nuts.
