Campus Stadium - University Of California

Shredded by Jer and Bob was a little slide happy in 78, but works well.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Capital Centre

Jerry has an interesting final jam that he rips at the end of China Cat. He also shreds at the end of Rider , too.

Great version of this rare tune at this epic run. Bruce is a nice addition on this tune.

The Music Never Stopped
May 13, 1977
Auditorium Theatre

Epic Dr. Beechwood intro...very short version with other May 77 ones being better.
The Other One
May 3, 1972
Olympia Theater

My second favorite O1 behind 2/13/1970. This one is pretty perfect and best one from Europe72. BTW best Dark Star of Europe 72 is Rotterdam.

Frickin epic show
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 17, 1977
Memorial Coliseum

Blows the standard Mosque(5/25) version out of the water. This version may be best of 1977 and top 5 all time. I can't get enough of this one...love the whacks in the beginning of Fire..never heard anything like that from Jer on Fire.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 11, 1977
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

Grendel: Love your appreciation for this S/F. I think this show is so underrated. I mean the isolated Jerry solo after UJB is sic. I mean what makes up disc 3 of the May release (S/F>good lovin, UJB>Solo>Wharf Rat) is just awesome.
