Texas Christian University

The "on the road" sweaty dust of the west is oh so perfectly expressed on this take - '71 perfection.

Jerry sure does end this one with some pyrotechnics.

You dig Peggy O's? Check this out and groove on the saturated sounds of Keith's Rhodes piano as he and Jerry weave a spell while Phil and Bobby keep it all lightly locked down....would like to hear from other's what other PP's are hiding out there that match this one's deep REM state.

Can opener style jamming on the 1st solo and then closes out with multiple triple Lindys on the ride out....massive show.

Crow - I know that Hawaii show and great slower playing with the island vibe - I also love whenever Jerry plays his first solo like he's got a hatchet for a pick. Yessir. Check 4/13/71 for screamin' Bertha in the classic Skuil and Roses style. Must say this beats shoveling! hahaha.
Ramble On Rose

Auditorium Theatre

Admittedly not a huge fan o The Rose in general but this one does have that faster tempo and they attack it strongly which I prefer... I found one with some real in the pocket action albeit slightly slower on 11/22/72 which I think is an under appreciated show. +1
