My first one. Missed the bustouts at Hampton '89 and RFK '90, but this one was huge...actually, the whole show was pretty colossal!

Jerry just nails this version to the wall coming out of a sick Eleven Jam. This one is special.

Okay, the Alligator's kinda short, but I nominate the entire Alligator>Drums>Eleven Jam because it hasn't been talked about on here. Smokin'.

Capital Centre

Towering Dew. Jerry just emotes all over the place! The Ripple gets all the love from this night, but the Dew is the climax and the real highlight.

Jer just SMOKES this one...vocals are on point and so expressive. Outro jam is thunderous...
Easy Wind

Fillmore East

Pig, Bob, and Jerry all get off smokin' solos in this monster version! 11:00!!
Eyes Of The World
June 18, 1974
Freedom Hall

For me, easily the best one ever. Just the smooth, jazzy way Bill kicks this one off...pretty flawless.
He Was A Friend of Mine
May 5, 1967
Fillmore Auditorium

THIS is the one I grew up on...well jammed w/ some pretty sick harmonies.
