This is a great version. Not sure why it’s not listed. Jerrys vocal delivery here is fantastic.

Just at the beginning of my 76 listen-through here but the harmonies on this are beautiful, particularly in the outro.

Very laid-back 74 version. I think Donna is excellent on this.

Dane County Coliseum

Love how Phil ignores the transition for a little while at the beginning of this song and then just comes into line and pushes the boat out. This whole sequence is best-ever stuff.

This Dark Star is incredible. Up with the best ever, seems only low due to popularity.

Oh this one is really good. Slightly slower tempo, great keys work, beautiful extended solo from Jerry.

Listening through 73 and this is the first one that felt like an organic part of the set rather than a set piece.
