Solid later version. Love how much this tune changed over the years. Every one did, but this one particularly with Brent, Jerry’s voice, & the fun end

Probably as good as any other that year. Good nonetheless.

Terrapin Station
March 24, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

I really have yet to find one that feels as true to the grand, inspired feel of Terrapin Station as this performance. Terrapin Station, in my mind, doesn’t lend itself to “perfection” or being “clean,” “tight” as the Swing Auditorium ‘77 performance or Winterland ‘78. This one feels right because it’s free and feels like they’re really in pursuit of something big.

Oh fuck yes. Spacey, thundering ‘78 realness. This is great.

Still a top one for me. There is a brief moment in Jerry's solo where I get this feeling like the I get slightly lifted off the ground and dropped back down. Hard to describe, but I think about it a whole lot.

Pretty sloppy vocally and instrumentally.

Great Dew.
