April '78 goodness right here. This band's ability to shift dynamics from quiet to rock 'n roll loudness never ceases to amaze me

Jerry sings with emotion, and the first solo is a beauty..

Smoking Deal! Jerry’s guitar tone in 1983 was remarkable

Here Comes Sunshine

Dane County Coliseum

Absolutely killer version, even though it clocks in at just under ten minutes. As a side note, only Dead fans would consider a ten minute version of a song to be short! Ha!
Feel Like A Stranger

Augusta Civic Center

Great rec, DS67. it's between this one and 5/1/81 as my all time favorites
Eyes Of The World
Dec. 30, 1977
Winterland Arena

Truly one of the best of '77 thanks to the long mellow jam at the end..

Has MLB and Other One jams, and I thought the blown speaker made the space portion rather entertaining. You can hear them shouting on stage “we gotta blown speaker somewhere!”
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
Dec. 5, 1981
Market Square Arena

Long build up jam during Saint that peaks very nicely. Just what the f*ck you gonna do now?
