Marin County Civic Center

Funky stuff. Jerry makes some excellent licks and Brent has fine supporting contributions. Heady, for sure

Palace Theatre

I really dig this version. Bouncy and understated. Bobby and Keith with excellent supportive rhythmic contributions. Jerry with country twang vocals

Let It Grow
April 15, 1978
William and Mary College Hall

End jam is very dense and thick. Very strong effort with great backing from the rhythm devils

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
March 26, 1987
Hartford Civic Center

Hot, compact ChinaCat jam, but the highlight is Jerry hammering the "headlight" lyric in Rider. Gave me chills (as most similar later versions do)

Estimated Prophet

Civic Center

Very tight version. Jerry nails the noodles richly, making for a far out excursion. Only issue is a seemingly rushed Eyes segue

I Need A Miracle
Oct. 18, 1978
Winterland Arena

Usually kind of a skip song for me, but this one delivers!
Shakedown Street
Dec. 31, 1981
Oakland Auditorium

Jerry and Brent go lick for lick, then Jerry takes over and brings the jam home. Hell of a way to start a new years show!
New Minglewood Blues
Dec. 31, 1981
Oakland Auditorium

Bad ass version
Greatest Story Ever Told
Sept. 28, 1972
Stanley Theatre

Wow, haven't heard this in a while - still amazing! St Stephen jamming throws this one into the stratosphere
