Kiel Auditorium

The whole band creates a seamless, burbling groove. (Listen for Phil pushing through the small spaces Bobby leaves.) Mesmerizing.

Kiel Auditorium

The short, country-style numbers sound so good in this set. There's a lot of good music in this show even before the big jams arrive.

Century II Convention Hall

Wow. One of my favorite standalone versions now. Just exactly perfect.
Cumberland Blues
Nov. 17, 1972
Century II Convention Hall

Sounds like Jerry quotes some recognizable (famous) bluegrass licks in this one. Sorry, can't ID the song.

Century II Convention Hall

Folks... this is quite a Me & My Uncle.
Caution

Holy fuck! This is nuts! Absolutely raging '68 firestorm of a Caution.

Greek Theatre - University of California

Not better than the best of '69-'71, but this one sure shreds in places.
