This one is stretched out. Solid Jerry shredding throughout.

Love the way this version crashes into drums. Nice way to end a 6 song pre-drums sequence.

Jerry mumbles threw the lyrics but the jam is hot!

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Dec. 12, 1980
Swing Auditorium

These Mountain Jam esque China Cat's popped up a few times in 1980. Check out 7/1/1980 for another excellent China Cat > Rider with a little Mountain Jam flavoring.
Truckin'

Providence Civic Center

A lot to discover and explore with this Truckin'. One of those jams you can listen to 100 times and still hear something you haven't heard before. Leaves the Truckin' structure around 14 minutes in > Phil Bombs > TOO jam > Spanish jam and then my favorite part is the delicate, jazzy and spacey jam that drifts into a wonderful version of Wharf Rat. Love this Truckin'!!

Madison Square Garden

Don't snooze on the Truckin' from the first night of the run (9/14/1990). Comes crashing down to some delicate Jerry licks then drifts sweetly to an awesome Terrapin.
