Just about every other song from this show is on HV, so this should be too. Despite that fact, this show as a whole needs more love - it's excellent.

Perfect - JG nails this.

My favorite part of every Jed is the last long Jerry solo that wraps up the song - this is a really cool one.

Rooster is not necessarily a song I seek out when I look at setlists, but this one stands out. Nice show here.

I have a new respect for TJ lately because of Jerry's long solo at the end. It's always different, and this is a cool one.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
June 26, 1974
Providence Civic Center

The China Cat portion of this is far and away the best of all time, while the IKYR is just good. I think the China Cat is so incredible that IKYR would literally have to suck to knock this out of the #1 spot.

I love this one - '74 is probably my favorite year. However - I rank this 2nd to my favorite TLMD - 8.3.82. Donnie - I think Jerry's "broken and shot" voice in the 80s works well for this particular song.

This whole show is as good as it gets. Almost every song played is a top version - this and DDHNM are unreal. Crank it.
Big River

Universal Amphitheatre

This should be higher up the list - like #1. Jerry is close to perfection here.

McNichols Arena

Top shelf version here. I can't think of one I like better, as a matter of fact. Go Nuggets!
