So soulful. One of the best Wharf Rats Jerry has ever sung. All around perfect version, coming out of one sick jam.

Johnny B. Goode

Cotterell Gym - Colgate University

This gets out of control fairly quickly, when jerry takes his solo to the next level. A seriously rocking version.

Holy shit is this a smoker or what. Too bad they end it 5 minutes in, this version was fucking cooking.

Fillmore East

This is my hands-down favorite M&MU. Garcia's hook into his solo pierces ice. Just love the fills provided by all. Perfect rendition of one of my favorite Dead cowboy songs.

Outstanding....Period
Bertha

Dane County Coliseum

There is no Bertha played on this date. I think your confusing this with the 2/5/78 version on DP 18, which has already been posted.

Charged, and absolutely ripping final jam. They push the limit of whats possible shredding wise in this song, and possibly escape the stratosphere of what they thought was possible in the first place. This is what 78' gives you, super high energy, super high intensity jamming.
