Throwing Stones

Cal Expo

VERY rare Throwing Stones that isn't the second to last set closer - goes straight into a solid GDTRFB

Eyes Of The World
Oct. 20, 1983
The Centrum

Awesome Eyes, with what appears to be Jerry playing Bobby's licks in the very beginning - AUD only but spectacular nonetheless

Playin' In The Band
March 12, 1981
Boston Garden

Petrified that I'm the first to nominate this - DO NOT SKIP JUST BECAUSE ITS AN AUD - Awesome Playin' that dissolves into a spectacular He's Gone

The Other One
May 13, 1973
Iowa State Fairgrounds

Phil OWNS this one. The intro is stuck in my head - probably a top 5 Other One for 73-74
Aiko Aiko
June 20, 1987
Greek Theater

Ripping version, showcasing Jerry's comeback (especially vocally)
Dark Star
Feb. 21, 1969
Dream Bowl

Really great, like drifting on a raft in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Highlight of this show is the intense Eleven however
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 26, 1990
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Prelude S>F to the famous one from Hamilton next month. Phil is all over this one, but the entire band is truly locked in. Not super intense but highly experimental, both in MIDI and just playing
Foolish Heart
Sept. 12, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Really excellent Foolish on Jerry's end, scorching guitar work. The two keyboards meld well on thus one
