Ship of Fools

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Part of a great overall show at the Greek. I don't necessarily seek out SOF, but JG is on point on this one, both in his playing and vocals.

1981 is chock full of good Altheas, and this is one. A bunch of cool JG riffs - surprised this isn't listed. Solid show.

Really love early Brent era Stellas (‘79-82). Jerry is excellent throughout this show, and this Stella is no exception. Could be a tad longer though.

This entire show needs more love on here. Some cool Jerry guitar on this.

Love both the '82 & '83 Red Rocks runs, and each includes a great Loser. 7.29.82 & 9.7.83. This is a heater - Jerry rocks the big solo. Check her out!

No idea how it's not top 5. Jerry goes off like I can't remember hearing on too many other Dews.

Good stuff. There are so many MAMUs it's hard to find ones that stand out. This one and 11/17/72 come to mind, though.

There are a bunch of good Dark Stars, but this is the all-around best of them all. Jerry sounds fantastic throughout - some of my favorite music they ever played.

Jerry rocks the big solo on this one. This one should be higher up the list without a doubt.
