Liquid fire jamming

Feel Like A Stranger
Oct. 18, 1984
Meadowlands Arena

Super tight, and funky version. Contender for best of 84'.

Estimated Prophet
Dec. 16, 1994
Sports Arena

This estimated prophet is wild, intense, and as wicked as they come. With Branford Marsalis, the jam is almost as cosmic as a Dark Star.

Samson and Delilah
Nov. 6, 1977
Broome County Arena

As is the case with nearly all 1977 versions, this Samson and Delilah is huge and each member provides an energetic presence.

Davis Gym, Bucknell University

Early version of the song, but definitely finding its way nicely, a great mellow version that is jammed 10+ min.

Killer conclusion to this 1st set
The Weight

The Omni

Second above comments-- the transition is quite something.. Vocals are heartfelt and definitive, Stranger>1/2>Weight is a pleasant surprise to open a very solid 1st set.

Samson and Delilah
Feb. 5, 1978
Uni Dome, U of Northern Iowa

DP 18 is crackling with an abundance of energy that places it in the upper echelon of live dead releases. This Samson is torn to absolute shreds, Garcia is a man possessed, if I had to guess the stage was on fire following this version.
