Super clean version with hefty rhythm. Very crankable.

Rippin stellar version. I like this one a little better than the 72-04-14, which is a close second.

This one's on fire... thought for sure it would be here already. Blistering Jerry.

I can't believe this wasn't on the list... around the 16 minute is some of the most epic crazy jamming ever!

This one sounds great on the new Seamon's matrix. Inspired playing. Super wicked stuff from Jerry.

Cape Cod Coliseum

This one really is solid. No flaws and Jerry rips it a new one. Good call.
It Must Have Been The Roses

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Surprised to find this one so far down the list. Jerry is really into it.

Jerry attacks this thing like a hungry dog on a bloody steak filet. Blistering leads and played perfectly by the band.

The Austin Municipal Auditorium

Move over Cornell, this one's the cream of the crop. Bobby's primal S_C_R_E_A_M. He means it!
