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

Gotta love a Stranger with that crispy ‘87 sound!

El Paso

Adams Field House, U of Montana

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!

He's Gone

Parc des Expositions

Top notch start to the second set jam, from what is probably my all-time favourite show
Dancin' in the Streets
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

Man, I love that riff Jerry plays around with from 07:25 on the DaP-version
Eyes Of The World
Nov. 9, 1973
Winterland Arena

Wow! As mentioned, this Eyes is ridiculously low given it being from fall '73, and it makes little sense that it has 82 votes less than the one they played two days later.
Me and My Uncle
Nov. 9, 1973
Winterland Arena

This is one of those songs that is highly dependent on performance quality, and they really nail it here.
Wharf Rat
Nov. 14, 1973
San Diego International Sports Arena

Great Wharf Rat and a perfect ending to the second set jam. The last minutes floats.
