Winterland Arena

This one has more of an Other One-ish feel than most...they seem like they're pushing for it but end up going in a completely different direction

P.N.E. Coliseum

One of the best mellow blues versions...killer noodles from Jerry

Adams Field House, U of Montana

Very graceful playing on this one, gets kind of spacey leading up to a smooth as butter transition into Dark Star.

Truckin'

Olympiahalle

Killer jam out of this Truckin' with a huge peak that gives way to some fast-paced space-jazz from Jerry, and landing on a quick little mellow MLBJ

Beautiful, mellow version. Garica's tone is especially sweet, with an almost country-ish flavor; sounds like he's using a bit of slide?

This is actually 12/18/73. But good version none the less.

Easily one of the best of the '80s. How is this not more well known!?

This is a good one. Feb '73 Eyes have a unique vibe since they are still working out the ending.

Cotterell Gym - Colgate University

This is possibly the highest energy version you'll ever hear, moving at Warp 10 (at least) with some MONSTER Garcia shred-age and huge power chords. Stunning.
