Caution
May 12, 1980
Boston Garden

This is a pretty intense early 80s-style Caution jam. I was surprised to find this just now.

The Music Never Stopped
Dec. 1, 1979
Stanley Theater

A unique beginning with nice peaks to both the mid jam and the outro.

Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Feb. 4, 1979
Dane County Coliseum

The final Keith and Donna Half Step stands up well, even though there's one lonely AUD.

An early Brent Mydland Half Step with electric piano pre rio grandeo and a joyful Garcia solo afterwards.

Sugaree
Oct. 18, 1978
Winterland Arena

No fanning or soaring peaks, but solo 3 (7:45-12:45 on CM's SBD) is a new favorite - sublime, mellow, laid back.

The Other One
Oct. 10, 1976
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

A thunderous entrance and then they let it all hang out. Even though this is late 76, this bears little resemblance to the mellow 77s. It may be a bit sloppy at times, but nothing is left on the tee. I’ve been putting this on lately when I want to get fired up.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 22, 1978
Winterland Arena

Chilled out Fire. Very relaxed
Eyes Of The World
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

The intro flows and sparkles like the best 77s and the climax of the second solo break is powerful stuff. A highlight of a really consistently good show.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 11, 1977
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

A great Scarlet and a fun transition. The Fire is good, but it doesn't dislodge too many '77s from the perches.
Looks Like Rain

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

I rarely seek this song out, but I was listening to this show today, and I loved it. The flourish at the end is perfect.
