Me and My Uncle
Sept. 14, 1978
Sphinx Theatre

Carries forward the energy and vibe of the preceding Ollin>NFA. Kind of mesmerizing.

When I Paint My Masterpiece
Oct. 27, 1990
The Zenith

Eloquent Jerry solo elevates this one unexpectedly.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
July 7, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Don’t always love the ’78s for this tune, but this howling version certainly warrants attention.

The Eleven
April 4, 1969
Avalon Ballroom

Another brilliant April '69 Eleven that just doesn't let up. Forceful, but totally unforced.

Turn On Your Love Light
April 4, 1969
Avalon Ballroom

Brilliantly strange. T.C.'s organ adds stuttering weirdness to a churning groovathon.

They Love Each Other
May 26, 1973
Kezar Stadium

Maybe the best damn version I've ever heard.
Eyes Of The World
July 31, 1982
Manor Downs

Love the atonal Brent-led jam out of this Eyes into Drums.
The Eleven
Aug. 23, 1968
Shrine Auditorium

The E minor jam at the end is perhaps the most ferocious of such jams that I've heard.
Playin' In The Band
June 22, 1973
Pacific Coliseum

Oh wow. One of the very best jams I've heard from summer '73. Covers a lot of ground — hard to believe it's only 18 minutes.
Box of Rain
June 22, 1973
Pacific Coliseum

Some stellar contributions from Keith here -- but I guess the same could be said for most '73 Dead.
