Great for Toddler-Heads at under 5 minutes, with quirky urgency, one of the shortest ever…

Blue Dead or Grateful Blues… either way, Jerry and Pigpen were master blues men.

Orpheum Theatre

Urgent and gorgeous, as most '76 Wheels are, in a Playin' sandwich to end the first set. Fantastic show!

Rec Hall, Penn State U

Sun's gonna shine on my back door some day. March winds gonna blow all my troubles away. A beauty.

Agreed. This should be so much higher. Possibly the best ever.
Terrapin Station
May 15, 1980
Nassau Coliseum

Like the Althea from this show, really surprised this was never listed. There was nothing like a Dead show and, really, there was never anything quite like a Terrapin at a Dead show!!!!! This is a fine one. It was cut from the Go To Nassau disc, but the entire show is worth a lot of listens...

Smoking hot. Blistering. Ridiculous. All that.
