Nice DP 20 here. The Playin' opener isn't quite epic, but this wheel is! Jerry starts with a cool little riff that just gets this perfect wheel goin

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

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.

Kinda wants to go into Nobody's fault, but just ends up as a bluesy jam. Nice version.
Black Peter

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.
