A big version. Listen as the baton gets passed without missing a beat.

An A1 performance that just improves with repeated listenings.

They Love Each Other
April 13, 1983
Patrick Gymnasium, U of Vermont

A bull's ass in fly season and the boys on this one are both TIGHT!!! (Although tight might not be the correct word for an awesome TLEO.)

Stanley Theatre

While not without imperfection, this version gets at that misty quality central to the ethos of the tune.

They Love Each Other
July 5, 1978
Omaha Civic Auditorium

Yep, funky and it's nice listening to Jerry dance around the 'Wolf's neck.
Estimated Prophet

Omaha Civic Auditorium

One of the reasons why anyone who says '78 was a high water mark for this tune won't be bundled in a knot.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
July 5, 1978
Omaha Civic Auditorium

Much better than its current 5 votes would suggest.
Sugaree
Oct. 9, 1977
McNichols Arena

That'd be one nice graph, DS67
Dark Star
Sept. 16, 1972
Boston Music Hall

Every bit as commendable as the others from this month. The sonic data on the Sick Bits matrix captures this version well.
