West High Auditorium

I'm putting this on here because I love Jerry's guitar from the 3:00 - 3:05 mark on Sailor. Love this June '80 Alaska run!

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.
To Lay Me Down

Jai-Alai Fronton

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.

Avalon Ballroom

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
July 1, 1973
Universal Amphitheatre

This should be higher up the list - like #1. Jerry is close to perfection here.
Shakedown Street
Aug. 13, 1979
McNichols Arena

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