Very nice '83-version coming out of Space, which features an interesting jam into Playin' reprise. Bonus track on DaP 39.

Okay, so it's El Paso, but it sounds like Keith enjoyed the Big Sky 'cause this dude is ON throughout this show

Strange to not see this already on here. The boys are on (as they are throughout this legendary show). And listen to Billy!

Playin' In The Band

RFK Stadium

One of my favourites! Intense and (relatively) compact.
They Love Each Other

RFK Stadium

Bounces along nice and jazzy
Dark Star
July 25, 1974
International Amphitheater

Unsurprisingly the highlight of what I guess is regarded as a second (or third?) tier show from 1974 - being obviously still very good, but maybe at times a bit uninspired and lacklustre compared to the classics from this period. This Dark Star is really interesting though!

I’ll never get tired of these jazz excursions. Trippy adventures in the world of the Grateful Dead
