6/7 and 6/9 get all the attention, show more love for this one

Best show of the winterland run in my opinion (yes, better than 6/9)

Brokedown Palace
Sept. 17, 1970
Fillmore East

The acoustic set is unbeliebable. We get Ripple, Brokedown and Box of Rain. Three of my favourite songs back to back.

You can tell a good Wharf Rat (by the way she shines??) just by listening to the outro jam

New Haven Coliseum

Still my favourite. This one and 10/16 should be on the first and second places. All the other versions listed above are great, but these two version surpasses them by far.
The Other One
Sept. 3, 1972
Folsom Field, University of Colorado

After hearing this one again I can say that it could easily be my favourite version, perhaps only behind 5/2/70
Playin' In The Band

Kezar Stadium

Usualy a 15-20 minutes PITB first set closer (as usual in 73) is a nice treat, but here it's a real highlight of the show, so good it's unreal

It's not a Grateful Dead concert if somebody doesn't messes-up their lyrics :P This one actually made me smile :)

Love this version, it has a slower pace than usual and it's just so groovy, might be my new favourite (pre-hiatus) version
