Surprised to not see this listed - this entire show should be on here.

Surprised this one isn't listed. Nice mellow version with super clean playing by JG. Fantastic show.

I'm not always the biggest Mexicali fan, but Jerry's playing on this is dope. Sounds to me like there are a few Big River teases here. Good stuff.

This one starts off kinda run of the mill, then Jerry lays down a sick solo starting around the 4 minute mark. Great JG show as a whole.

The only GD show played in my birthplace happens to be one of my favorite shows ever.

*Edit to my original post* There is a big/annoying tape cut right after Jerry’s big solo. And he didn’t extend said solo as long in 72 as he did in 77 and beyond. I’m not a fan of 73 & 74 Losers. Weird bc everything else those 2 years is fire. All of that said - this deserves to be on here.

Totally agree with rgrigga - great example of 80s Tiger magic from JG.
