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.

Mexicali Blues

Golden Hall, Community Concourse

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.

They Love Each Other

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.

I've always loved this song and wish they continued playing it after 69. Jerry's guitar sounds great/powerful here. Always wish they would continue jamming - ends too abruptly.

Super fast is right. I agree, bzfgt - I can't think of a faster one. Good stuff.

Criminally underrated.

Frost Amphitheater

Excellent playing by Jerry. The 82, 83 and 85 Frost runs are all great. Haven't heard the post-85 shows there. May need to give them a spin.

This is a heater. Couldn't agree more with Brakemensblues - early 80s are fantastic and very underrated.
