Dec. 28, 1983
Civic Auditorium

Dark, spacey, very psychedelic. Really fits the '83 sound.

Here Comes Sunshine
July 28, 1973
Grand Prix Racecourse

Some blazin’ funky jamming here that sounds like something Pig would have rapped over a couple years earlier.
Here Comes Sunshine
Dec. 1, 1994
McNichols Sports Arena

(Whoops, commented on the wrong version. Damn mobile.)
He's Gone
Dec. 28, 1990
Coliseum Arena

Easy upvote for the mesmerizing post-song jam, which at times sounds plucked from an extended Truckin’ > Other One transition circa ’72.
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
Sept. 10, 1991
Madison Square Garden

This really impressed me. I haven’t done a direct comparison with any others, but I can’t remember liking a post-Brent version more than this.
Not Fade Away
Sept. 14, 1978
Sphinx Theatre

Jerry develops — and repeats — an incredible theme in the last few minutes. It is (forgive me if this is heresy) Anastasio-like.
