Wicked jamming from Jerry.

Novelty of being done at MSG aside, this is a great version. Jerry reals get after it in the last minute or so.

Perfect cherry on top of a blistering first set. Vince is on fire.

Really happy I get to submit this awesome version. Jerry is brilliant on it, his fills and his solos come right out of 1974.

Flawless and energetic version. Jerry doesn't a miss a lyric or a change. Perfect start to an epic show.

The more I listen the more this becomes maybe my favorite post-Brent version. cgarces, I remember you mentioning you're not big on this song, but I'd be curious to hear your take on this version.

This could use a couple of daps. Best version of a year that was not the best for the band or this duo. Not an unmitigated classic, but still very good.
The Other One

Nassau Coliseum

This "Other One" is such a delicious appetizer for the main course that is the "Dew." Listen up, this is explosive.

No debate on this one. Beautiful.

One of the best. Sweet as honey. Jerry sounds a little sharp vocally but I don't look to the Dead for perfection or shit like that. The passion is all there.
