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.

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.

Hampton Coliseum

Sprinkled with magic, emphatic but not leaden. Jerry's guitar and voice are both very fine in this bright, powerful version.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 15, 1973
Dane County Coliseum

I'm the first to acknowledge others' contributions, but this one is all about Jerry, who gives a textbook demonstration of his nimblest and most soulful playing. Way underrated.

Music Hall

Amazing dynamics on this version. Delicate without ever losing its pulse.
Beat it on Down The Line

Rheinhalle

It's not just you. This version was one of my early go-tos (you know, when I wanted to hear BIODTL).
