Bird Song
April 28, 1971
Fillmore East

Incredible version. A preview of what was to come in '72-73. And yes, the interplay between Garcia and Weir is great.
Eyes Of The World
Sept. 8, 1973
Nassau Coliseum

bennybenhead check out the night before, 9/7/73. It's even better IMO
Morning Dew
April 27, 1977
Capitol Theatre

This Terrapin>Dew is the real deal. The Dew outro just explodes. As good as any version out there...
Playin' In The Band
July 15, 1984
Greek Theatre - University of California

^ every so often. If I'm listening to one of my favorite Playin's like 9/17/72 or 8/4/74, I'll sometimes go ahead and skip to the jam, but I usually just let it play out.
Terrapin Station
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

Like Ernie5, I too am surprised this isn’t higher up the list.
