I am a sucker for this show, but you can just tell that they were on this evening when even the queen jane is energized.

Up-beat version here with cool groove to it. Jerry is lyrically strong. He nails the solos. Definately a heady version!

Love Deals from the 90's. Not sure anything from the 70's compares since they lack the ending jam.
Morning Dew

Music Hall

This one is better than 11/30. One of the all-time classic versions even when I only had tapes. Should be higher.
Truckin'

Music Hall

Kinda wants to go into Nobody's fault, but just ends up as a bluesy jam. Nice version.
Black Peter
Dec. 3, 1981
Dane County Coliseum

Its not even close. This is the best Peter of all time. Dick even said it was not even close. The final Jam is like nothing I have ever heard from this tune. Please people, move this up the list.
