Madison Square Garden

Great version featuring heads up Garcia playing, and some classic late 80's Bobby vocals (with just the right amount of DH weirdness)

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Funky Phil to start, with a Jerry midi finish that I just love (silky silky, crazy crazy night)

Victim Or The Crime

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

This version slips into full blown space at one point, unique version of a under rated song

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Great version with plenty of Jerry/ Brent goodness (not a fan of the song? This one may change that)

Henry J. Kaiser Auditorium

Brent blows a few lyrics early on, but he and Jerry more than make up for it in this hometown performance (makes no difference who or where you are)

Very fucking cool pick Grendel! I tend to love the picks that are buried down these lists....maybe because they are not the "best" but they represent some fucking epic cutting edge performances where the boys were trying some new things.....Great version! Great era!

Fuck I had never heard the board before....the jam is great, my aud with this sbd would make a sick matrix (I inherited some aud masters from a guy that pulled gems nightly) I don't even own a tape deck at this point. Best Corrina ever.....
