Sept. 3, 1988
Capital Centre

Smokin' hot version in its early pairing with Foolish Heart. This whole unusual 2nd set rips!

Cameron Indoor Stadium, Duke U

Fully jammed out vocal version in underrated jam from late '73...probably the peak period for NFBM...

Rippin' Easy Wind with TC high in the mix. This whole show is underrated.

San Diego International Sports Arena

I gotta git doooowwwwn!!! Whoo! Jer gets on a freakin' TEAR on this one. Everyone else is pumpin' along just like they should be! Wow...this might be THE one...
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
July 12, 1989
RFK Stadium

This is a powerhouse version. The band was just smokin' 'em one after the other on this tour. Well jammed out, and with really committed guitar and vocal leads from Senor Garcia.
Midnight Hour
June 4, 1970
Fillmore West

I like this one too! Weir is a monster in the jam, whipping out lead lines alongside Jerry. Mountain Jam and China Cat hints lead back into a seamless reprise. Great stuff.

The Spectrum

This is the prototypical one for me. I wore this tape out back in the day. Whatchoo kids know about XLII's?!
