Dec. 31, 1978
Winterland Arena

Nice locked in version. 13 minutes of what a Playin' should be.

Might As Well
Oct. 10, 1976
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

This show is often overlooked, but excellent on its own merits. Opens with a bang with a powerful Might As Well.

I really love this Supplication. It starts pretty chill and then catches fire.

Berkeley Community Theatre

All these 72 versions have much to offer. This is, as expected, top notch. But not as good as Veneta.
Uncle John's Band
May 11, 1977
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

I love this UJB mostly for the killer outro and then intro into wharf rat... that little jam between UJB and Wharf Rat is about as unique of an isolated Garcia solo as it gets.
Take A Step Back
Nov. 5, 1977
Community War Memorial Auditorium

Seriously its the best... Phil Solo>TASB>Eyes
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 26, 1990
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

This is one of a kind monster.... midi me. One of those versions that you have to listen to at least once. I can see one person saying this is out there cool or another saying pure shat.

Three votes... that's fucked up.
