Space
April 3, 1982
The Scope

This brief Space is more of an extended Jerry-led intro to NFA, and it's way cool. This show is out of sight.

Bird Song
June 13, 1994
Memorial Stadium

Adventurous, somewhat dissonant jam from a fairly strong first set. Fans of Welnick-era improv should check this out.

Its All Over Now
Nov. 10, 1985
Meadowlands Arena

Rowdy but still sharply played. Check out this superb first set.

Row Jimmy
June 21, 1976
Tower Theater

Intense and electrifying, highlighted perhaps by Jerry’s vocal performance. Another amazing June ’76 Row Jimmy.

I Need A Miracle
Dec. 17, 1978
Fox Theatre

Hot early version with a well-developed Jerry-led outro jam. Check out the amazing Joann Walker recording.

Hot, swampy East Coast summer energy! Very powerful.

Capitol Center

Divinely inspired. I’m going to upvote the LIG right now.

Yes, to all of the above, and how ’bout those Phil bombs?
Let It Grow
Sept. 29, 1977
Paramount Theatre

Just ridiculous. I can’t even believe this thing. Don’t go another day without hearing this. (The SBD’s not great, but try the AUD, loud.)
Sugaree

Paramount Theatre

Oh my god!!! This performance is absolutely competitive with the other greats from ’77! Audio quality is the only reason it’s languishing down here with just three votes. The AUD’s really not bad, though, and this is well worth hearing.
