Liquid fire jamming

Super tight, and funky version. Contender for best of 84'.

Estimated Prophet
Dec. 16, 1994
Sports Arena

This estimated prophet is wild, intense, and as wicked as they come. With Branford Marsalis, the jam is almost as cosmic as a Dark Star.

Samson and Delilah
Nov. 6, 1977
Broome County Arena

As is the case with nearly all 1977 versions, this Samson and Delilah is huge and each member provides an energetic presence.

Davis Gym, Bucknell University

Early version of the song, but definitely finding its way nicely, a great mellow version that is jammed 10+ min.

Big River
Feb. 26, 1973
Pershing Municipal Auditorium

Love this Dick's Pick. 2/26 and 2/28 are two shows coming from a scaldingly good month of February 73'. Every show this month is worth checking out. Same could be said for the following month, but hey its all good. 73' is just classic as fuck. Also, too add, this Big River is smokin', Garcia tears apart the entire 4:30

Strong version here. Great show all around.

Yes, agree with the above statement. This show is worth checking out, and if anybody is scared away by the AUD, it is a shame. This show is certainly underrated, and the AUD is not that bad, once listening the sound quality wont matter as much because the performance will speak for itself.
