Incredible jazzy transition into Supplication

He's Gone
Dec. 27, 1977
Winterland Arena

I'm not a huge fan of this song after 74, but this version is just exactly perfect. Gave me chills!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 27, 1977
Winterland Arena

I'm surprised this one isn't listed yet. Although the Fire is only average, this Scarlet is one of the best unsung versions ever.

Jan. 6, 1978
Swing Auditorium

If you dig 11-6-77, you'll love this. One of the highest-octane versions ever performed. Insanity.

agreed, the best, most unstoppable, most joyful Feelin' Groovy ever
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 24, 1974
Winterland Arena

Beautiful, jazzy, and a one of a kind transition in Rider. One of the best of '74.
Alligator
Aug. 22, 1968
Fillmore West

Forgot about this one! Even better than 8/23
Not Fade Away
Nov. 24, 1972

Part of a outrageous, balls-to-the-wall NFA>GDTRFB>NFA combo
Truckin'
April 16, 1972
Aarhus University

Jerry WAILS, possibly the hottest version ever
