Stella Blue

Star Lake Amphitheater

Jerry's guitar scorches throughout, with genuine pin drop moments, followed by sweeping beauty. Coda laments for Stella are short but sweet.

Surprised it's not here. Epic show, one of the best of the 80s.

Franklin's Tower
Dec. 4, 1979
Uptown Theater

One of the best stand alone Franklins (out of amazing Estimated) and it goes into a rocking, flowing, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous jam. On the tail end of Dave's 31 extras, this whole show is excellent, as I recall...
Blow Away
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

So crazy. My buddy says he was there. Climbed a pole behind Jerry. Might have taken some of his clothes off. IDK. Says the highlight was Kesey on kazoo. Says it was a pretty hot show overall.
Blues For Allah
March 23, 1975
Kezar Stadium

The whole shebang is amazing ridiculousness. One of their greatest moments.
King Solomon's Marbles
March 23, 1975
Kezar Stadium

Truly insane Deadness. And Gratefulness. Some of the greatest jamming ever. How ridiculous it must have been. Never fails.

Another that could be my all time favorite. Many years ago, I had no doubt.
