Pretty Peggy O

The Forum

Powerful and incandescent. I’ll admit Peggy-O can sometimes bore me, but not this one!

He's Gone
July 28, 1973
Grand Prix Racecourse

Don't let sound quality issues prevent you from hearing this. As fresh and crisp as any of the other fine He's Gones from spring and summer.

Deal

Grand Prix Racecourse

They end up running through the “solo” section twice. Both times are as hot as you would expect for ’73.

They Love Each Other
Sept. 2, 1979
Augusta Civic Center

Brent goes funky with his solo, then Jerry goes lyrical.

Drums -> Space

Augusta Civic Center

What sounds like a momentary Let It Grow tease in Space, if you’re listening for something in particular. Powerful and pure Grateful Dead.

Shakedown Street
July 9, 1989
Giants Stadium

A true team effort that shows off the jamming chemistry of 1989.
New Minglewood Blues
Aug. 19, 1980
Uptown Theatre

This is one of the best versions I’ve heard. 1980 is such an amazing — and too often overlooked — year.
Truckin'
Oct. 14, 1989
Meadowlands Arena

Chilled-out ambient space into Drums. Very cool and different.
Playin' In The Band
July 10, 1990
Carter-Finley Stadium

Ample demonstration of the jamming magic of Brent’s last year.
Turn On Your Love Light
Feb. 28, 1969
Fillmore West

Hadn't heard this in a long time, then listened yesterday for the 50th anniversary and wooooooow. Jerry — is — on — fire. No wonder this one is ranked so high!
