A rockin' reprise out of a haunting "China Doll."

I...can't believe I'm submitting this...but Jerry lays down a very good solo worth hearing once.

Promised Land

Cal Expo

Torched rendition. 5/26 gets all the attention but 5/27 is pretty fucking excellent as well.

Ship of Fools

Frost Amphitheatre

Jerry modifies the intro and delivers a riveting solo later on.

Dark Star
Feb. 24, 1974
Winterland Arena

This, 9/10, and 10/18 are some of the most beautiful, subtle and musical versions ever performed. No weird feedback breakdowns or anything, just epic displays of how good the band can be.
Passenger
Dec. 5, 1981
Market Square Arena

The raw coarseness in Brent's voice fits the harmonies so much better than Donna's.
Bertha
April 15, 1978
William and Mary College Hall

Fantastic version. Tight as can be and rocks like nobody's business.
Big Railroad Blues
Sept. 2, 1983
Boise Pavilion - Boise State University

This one rips a hole in the space-time continuum.
Black Throated Wind
Feb. 21, 1995
Delta Center

One of many tasty delights from the best show of 1995.
