The golden year for Memphis Blues. Bruce is given the main solo spot.

Oviously the band was on this night. This Sugar Mag is absolutely torched.

I like the extended intro. Loved this song if the show was killer like this one.

Alot of great 78 Jeds...this one is hot with a patient and unique final jam.

Bird Song

Berkeley Community Theatre

All these 72 versions have much to offer. This is, as expected, top notch. But not as good as Veneta.
Uncle John's Band
May 11, 1977
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

I love this UJB mostly for the killer outro and then intro into wharf rat... that little jam between UJB and Wharf Rat is about as unique of an isolated Garcia solo as it gets.

Community War Memorial Auditorium

Seriously its the best... Phil Solo>TASB>Eyes
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 26, 1990
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

This is one of a kind monster.... midi me. One of those versions that you have to listen to at least once. I can see one person saying this is out there cool or another saying pure shat.

Three votes... that's fucked up.
