Aug. 21, 1968

About 3 minutes before Alligator ends, there is a really aggressive run through we bid you goodnight.

Mountain Jam

Fillmore West

15.5 minutes after Alligator begins, or at the 5:00 mark of the 2nd "Alligator" there is a mountain.

Mountain Jam
Dec. 12, 1980
Swing Auditorium

It's just one "First there is a mountain, then there is a mountain and then there is" in the CCS>IKYR transition.

The Spectrum

The 2nd solo is great. Nothing never heard before, but constructed perfectly.

Estimated Prophet
Feb. 27, 1977
Robertson Gym, UC Santa Barbara

It's early and they are still working this out. This and the day before are interesting for their historical import, but there are more than a dozen from the first half of '77 to put squarely in front of these two.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

This version is 100% solid, but it contains zero jaw-dropping moments. It's just another ho-hum tight 1977 version. When you get past half-step, it doesn't sound like an AUD anymore - Garcia's guitar is clear and wonderful. The solos before and after rio grandeo are both too short for my 9/3/77 and 11/5/77 tastes.
Loser

Robertson Gym, UC Santa Barbara

The AUD makes it a little hard to hear Keith, but what can be heard is good and the rest of the band really goes after this Loser. A-.
Eyes Of The World
Oct. 30, 1973
Kiel Auditorium

The end of this take is spacey, ethereal and dreamy. November 1973 was magic and it's in the neighborhood.
