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

And We Bid You Goodnight
Aug. 21, 1968
Fillmore West

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

Mountain Jam
Aug. 21, 1968
Fillmore West

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

Mountain Jam

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.

Comes A Time
July 17, 1976
Orpheum Theatre

I just got this in the mail and this was the first thing I cued up. I wholeheartedly endorse the thoughts of the other commenters. Listen quickly.
Wharf Rat
July 8, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

I first heard this in 1999 and it's been my favorite since then. It's all about Jerry in the pearly's been true section. I bet this one will get a bump from the July 78 box.
Terrapin Station
April 22, 1977
The Spectrum

If you like this song, you should hear this one, if only for the fact that this is number 6. The aesthetic is sweet, but this is not the best one ever.

The Spectrum

Yes, it's short - I cannot lie. It's also perfect in a number of respects and you'd better hope you get some gapless playback as it goes into the sixth terrapin ever - because that 20 seconds or so are some awesome (quiet) stuff.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

The Spectrum

The start is sloppy and this is the second song of the spring 77 tour. But order is restored and everything else gets a little extra effort to make up for the missed verse. The pre and post rio grandeo guitar is unique - a recommended listen for those who like 77 half step.
