Bouncy, flowing latter day Cumberland Blues. Jerry on the attack. Epic show.

They blast right out of the gate with this blazing hot "Deal." Jerry is in fiery form and brings thing to where you want them to be.

One More Saturday Night
May 7, 1972
Bickershaw Festival

Bobby saying "Here's Mr. Garcia" when Jerry takes his solo never fails to put a smile on his voice. Bobby was on this whole show. This song was NEVER the same once it left Europe. It almost immediately became a tossed off afterthought with little to no effort. I never, ever willingly listen to post-1972 versions. But in Europe, this song is as good a rock and roll rave up as any ever done. It's up there with "Shout" and "Gimme Some Lovin'" as one of the best party rockers of all time.

Not quite as focused as 3/27/94, but Jerry brings it at the end.

Jerry's solos are great here. Some really lovely runs.
The Other One

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Seriously, this should not be languishing with one vote. This is a spectacularly dark, intense, driven version.
Bird Song

Madison Square Garden

Vince really shone on "Bird Song" from 1993-95.
