Cassidy
May 16, 1978
Uptown Theater

Very heady jam segment in this one. Show is a sleeper from May

Cassidy

Providence Civic Center

The latter half of a great on-two punch to kick off the show (1/2 step preceding), this Cassidy is an absolute bute. Bob/Jer communication is tight

New Minglewood Blues
May 12, 1980
Boston Garden

Jerry rips a sick intro solo. Hyped up energy

Feel Like A Stranger
May 12, 1980
Boston Garden

The 'butt sweat' meter is off the charts for this. Great Brent work and killer peak

Marin County Civic Center

Funky stuff. Jerry makes some excellent licks and Brent has fine supporting contributions. Heady, for sure

I love this second set so much. Gorgeous crazy fingers. Fluid and crystalline
Deal

Winterland Arena

Suuuuper clean version. Bouncy, melodic
Bird Song
March 9, 1981
Madison Square Garden

Gorgeous, floating along like a leaf on the wind
Dark Star
Nov. 2, 1969
Family Dog at the Great Highway

I've been listening to this one a ton since the recent Dave's release. Such a beautiful, multi-thematic, exploratory version. And YES, the feeling > tighten jam is pure dead wizardry
Doin' That Rag
March 1, 1969
Fillmore West

^Totally agree with Top Binus above. Such a shame this track was confined to '69. I'm also consistently amazed at how much they pack into ~6 min. This one has a fantastic little groove at the end
