Swirling organ and guitar. Raw energy.

Deal
Sept. 10, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Ender to a very good first set. Jerry in fine form vocally, and he and Marsalis and musical in their sparseness.

Dark and moody version. Phil. The full ensemble drop into the minor for the solo break.

Greatest Story Ever Told
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

Best reminder that they're a really, really good rock band.
Spanish Jam
Feb. 14, 1968
Carousel Ballroom

Just listening for the first time now... What a ride!
Dark Star
Feb. 18, 1971
Capitol Theater

Powerful version! [edit:] I think the first half of the DS gets super trippy, I like it. I dig the whole sequence, but the jam, of course.
Dark Star
Oct. 31, 1971
Ohio Theatre

Great version, with something for everyone.
Wharf Rat
May 11, 1977
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

The solo is one of my favorite Jerry moments from a month full of them. He's confident enough to attempt and land a solo that gets pretty far out at times.
