Ramble On Rose

Metropolitan Sports Center

Sharp, delightful version. Supercharged Keith’s melodic lines will keep you guessing.

Do not miss! Jerry and Billy delicately dance across this while Phil subtly challenges the stability.

Very cohesive version with a noticeable snap. And Phil’s prominent in the recording.

Downs of Santa Fe

Don’t miss this wild, careening thrill ride. Start at Playin’ to get the full effect.

Drums -> Space

Downs of Santa Fe

Vivid Drums followed by extraordinary Space: a bright, melodic Bob and Jerry jam, then bicycle horns and a rich TOO intro jam.

Shakedown Street

Soldier Field

A few passages transported me back to a Good Lovin’ jam from 20 years earlier, which I was not expecting. Anyway, this is great Grateful Dead.
The Music Never Stopped
May 3, 1977
The Palladium

Verrrry sharp, hot jam. Check out the great MOTB AUD.
Bird Song
Aug. 5, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

Brisk, understated, lovely. I need to do more exploring, but I can’t recall enjoying a ’71 Bird Song more than this.
Queen Jane Approximately
April 2, 1990
The Omni

Check out 3/28/90 if you like this one. The immediate preceding version, it’s just a little sharper to my ears.
Terrapin Station
Dec. 28, 1980
Oakland Auditorium

A strong outro and, especially, a charming ambient jam into Drums make this version a keeper.
