It's not the gnarly 15+ minute versions it would be in later years, but there's something special about these early versions. Sweet/joyful sugareeee

Solid rendition. Whole band is on fire.
Terrapin Station

Fox Theatre

The ending to Terrapin's make me feel like I'm in outer space or something. This and 5/17 are my favorites.

Back for more, the ending is too epic

Aztec Bowl, San Diego State U.

If only the sound quality was better, I think this would be one of the best versions ever. To see jerry getting super into onstage is awesome too! Amazing stuff.
