A crisp version with a PITB jam outro before Wharf Rat.

Aug. 21, 1968
Fillmore West

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.

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

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

There is a Mountain Jam tease in the transition and that only plays a bit part in what makes this pair so good.
Deal
May 1, 1981
Hampton Coliseum

The first solo is crisp and lightning fast, but the second one is a religious experience. This Deal is dangerously underrated - I urge you not to give into to the squirrel-headed demagoguery of the versions in front of this masterpiece.

Merriweather Post Pavilion

This show is great - and this BEW is a great recommendation. Jerry's solo is great, but made better by the solo that Brent is basically playing at the same time. Top 20.

Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial Hall

Nothing. This is excellent.
