As far as these pre-August 74 versions go, pretty darn good; certainly far better than Veneta

Not the all-time best but surely deserves to be on the list

This is a par version, I'd say. The one from Jan. 10 is much better. Great show, but there are a few numbers in the first set that are par (nothing below par) and this is one of them.

This is so great, maybe as good as it gets post-hiatus

Well I dig this one, sure. It has a ton of energy. Jerry spends most of the solo on chordal stuff which is heavy and nice, but for top ranking I need a little more note-playing stuff.

This is indeed a really good one. Don't think I'd say top 5, but maybe.

I like this about as much as any Ship of Fools....there may be a better one, but I can't think of what it is
