My personal favorite pre-hiatus version.
Comes A Time
Sept. 16, 1991
Madison Square Garden

Jerry’s phrasing in this time period is just so gorgeous for this tune. Really suits it nice.
Attics of My Life
Sept. 27, 1972
Stanley Theatre

The harmonic performance doesn’t even have to be good for the spirit of this tune to hit you like a train. But I think they kill the difficult harmonies here making it all the more sweeter. RIP Robert Hunter.
Sunrise

Paramount Theatre

This whole first set rips beautiful stuff from Donna and Jerry
Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance
May 16, 1980
Nassau Coliseum

Hard to say live release material is a hidden gem, but yea this warrants it. Furious stuff with pristine leads from Jer
