Berkeley Community Theatre

A wonderful Jerry/Phil duet on this one. Not quite the legend of Veneta, but still very strong in its own right.

Excellent jams. Mix/sound is off, but this is still a must hear version!

Very lyrical and melodic playing by Jerry. A pretty unique version, one of my favorites.

Awesome flowing buildups and peaks during the first jam especially. A bit under the radar, but definitely one of the best of 1972!!!

Parc des Expositions

Sweet fusion-style Caution jam with major hints of MLB. Builds to a fiery Garcia climax!!

Wicked version, just as good as the night before!!
Estimated Prophet

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Bobby proclaims that he is moving to Australia, and the band proceeds to bring the house (err, amphitheater) down! Possibly the finest Estimated these ears have ever heard.
