A rare and different tune. Real nice transition into epic Playin-UJB from Go to Nassau...

Stunned this ain't here yet. Next night is a famous one. But this 2nd set opener is strong and rugged. Nice moment at "born to be a bachelor..."

Truckin'

Madison Square Garden

Wow! Can't believe this hasn't made the cut yet. Rips and roars out of poignant China Doll. Almost become a Smokestack... Super strong show!

Carousel Ballroom

DeadBase calls it a Dark Star Jam. There is not much of a hint of a Dark Star-ish melody, and the date is debatable. But everyone needs to hear this!!

Jerry will make ya cry. Into a ridiculously rocking Promised Land.
Foolish Heart
Sept. 18, 1990
Madison Square Garden

The jam out into Drums makes it the best....
Playin' In The Band
Sept. 19, 1990
Madison Square Garden

In and out of the Garden it went, rumbling triumphantly out of Dark Star the next night. One of the best shows of the 90s....
Comes A Time
May 9, 1977
War Memorial

No argument here. Still the favorite. Those last few minutes....
Eyes Of The World
May 7, 1977
Boston Garden

Grendel, thanks for the hilarious Brady Bunch metaphor! Yes! Exactly. Poor Boston. The forgotten child. And gotta agree on suggestions of the Eyes of 3/19/77 and 11/4/77. 11/4/77 is especially fantastic, as Eyes of the Worlds go. And thanks for the reminder of 3/19/77. What a show. So ridiculous, every time....
