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.

Truckin'
Jan. 6, 1978
Swing Auditorium

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

The Other One
Nov. 7, 1969
Fillmore Auditorium

Hot one from the night before Dick's Picks 16.

Here Comes Sunshine
Dec. 19, 1973
Curtis Hixon Convention Hall

I favor this over 2/23/74 mainly because of Jerry's third solo - HOLY SHIT - a top 10 Jerry solo if there ever was one!
New Minglewood Blues
April 26, 1969
The Electric Theatre

Also, the 1st since 1966!
He Was A Friend of Mine
May 24, 1969
Seminole Indian Village

He Was A Friend of Mine
July 3, 1969

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 19, 1973
Oklahoma City Fairgrounds Arena
