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.

Favorite. Show. Ever.

Swing Auditorium

Nice but I really wish I understood why this is voted #1. It's consistent and conservative where, in my view, a Terrapin should be searching and soaring

I’ve listened to this version so many times. Gorgeous for sure. Just never understood why it’s voted #1. Hasn’t ever quite latched me in like some of the others voted on a little further down the list. 6/26/74, 11/2/77, 4/29/71, and 11/6/77, 4/6/82 come to mind.

Not the best. Doesn’t quite the capture the feeling of this song. But Lordy this version is something special. That last jam is incredible!
