Capitol Theater

20 min. Pig rap-fest; Heavy and fast barnburner, thunderous drums, and nimble bass

The Other One
Feb. 19, 1971
Capitol Theater

Three from the Vault version; Tumbling, fiery, madness, Garcia lights this one up; The bus stopped by at the Capitol Theater, did you get on?

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 5, 1981
Glens Falls Civic Center

Melodic and creative soloing throughout; the transition (">") is absolutely on fire, musical communication between instruments is on point

Morning Dew
Feb. 28, 1973
Salt Palace

This is what all Morning Dews should sound like. Spectacular final crescendo. One of the better Dews of 73'
Cumberland Blues
May 15, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

This is a real smoker, and vocals are top-notch. The whole early show is worth checking out.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
June 8, 1977
Winterland Arena

They hit this out of the park. Each instrument clicks, and there is clear communication between instruments. Rocking and powerful version. Definitive.
Wharf Rat
June 8, 1977
Winterland Arena

This is really good. Epic O1<Wharf Rat
New Minglewood Blues
Nov. 6, 1977
Broome County Arena

These guys were on fire this whole show. But during this song they kick it into a new gear and pour it on like this was the last time they were ever going to play the song.
