Ramble On Rose

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.

Downs of Santa Fe

Don’t miss this wild, careening thrill ride. Start at Playin’ to get the full effect.

Drums -> Space
Sept. 10, 1983
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.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Iowa State Fairgrounds

At one point, the transition jam threatens to go "type II," to borrow the Phish term. Thrilling!
Sugaree

RFK Stadium

Absolutely gorgeous.
Good Lovin'
May 25, 1972
Strand Lyceum

A very exploratory Good Lovin', even by the standards of Europe '72. Like a laid-back Playin' in parts.
Dark Star
Dec. 31, 1990
Coliseum Arena

Do not overlook this version. Equals or surpasses the other versions from '89-'91. Incredible molten jam.
Looks Like Rain
June 9, 1976
Boston Music Hall

I couldn't believe how good this version is. Can sometimes take or leave the song, but this is INCREDIBLE.
