Great fun extended solo from Garcia. Phil sounds great in the mix.

Killer version. Then some of Brent's communist friends sabotage Bob Weir soon afterward..

Solid! God Brent had such an awesome voice. Jerry’s got a good lead here. The whole band is working with each other perfectly for this tune.

Jumps right out of Around & Around. Nice little dance party to a fine show in Alaska.

Good rocking Terrapin.

Barton Hall - Cornell University

Should be much much much much further down. But kinda makes sense why it's so high. Cornell is the entry point for lots of heads and this is a darn fun song even in 77, so people likely upvote it. Then it gets overplayed and we lose interest in the "best" OMSN, thus so many better performances are down the list.

Coming back to say: best in Europe and probably best ever IMHO. From maybe my personal #1 show. Forgot to upvote it when I discovered it. Glad to bump it above the Cornell one LOL, which should be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down the list.

Fast and tight. Ending jam is roaring. Jerry, Keith, and Phil are massively locked in
