I have a new respect for TJ lately because of Jerry's long solo at the end. It's always different, and this is a cool one.

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Part of a great overall show at the Greek. I don't necessarily seek out SOF, but JG is on point on this one, both in his playing and vocals.

1981 is chock full of good Altheas, and this is one. A bunch of cool JG riffs - surprised this isn't listed. Solid show.

Really love early Brent era Stellas (‘79-82). Jerry is excellent throughout this show, and this Stella is no exception. Could be a tad longer though.

This entire show needs more love on here. Some cool Jerry guitar on this.

I think I agree with gwelch3 - I can't think of any better versions than this one.

Super solid. This is the perfect length for PITB IMO - not too long, but long enough for some spacey, trippy jamming.

HEAT. Top 5 Althea here. No question.

Yeah this is great. Agree almost completely with everything Beggars Tomb said. While Jerry's voice is hurting a bit, it sounds a bit better than it does on say, Ramble on Rose (same set). JG playing is excellent - also characteristic of the era.
