I love UJB and its nice to have a reason to relisten to this one.Its a joy,no vocal flubs(its a hard one to sing with the choruses changing with each verse),cool harmony and a jammed out bridge,a great end to a huge show.JG and KG again,paint a colourful picture.Nice.

By 1978 Donna-Jean was really coming into her-own onstage,she and Bobby sound great together here.I,for one,like the rollicking 78 style.A nice way to remember Chuck Berry too.RIP.

Berkeley Community Theatre

I must agree with all the above- I absolutely love the quiet,delicate parts of AM dews..sublime,but Billy still keeping good time..For a rock band,the Grateful Dead do 'Quiet' like no other,they really know how to play softly and delicately,also knowing when no note is sometimes the best note. +1.

Olympia Theater

This is the real deal,Phil said KG was playing piano like a God in Paris,and he was right-everyones on point and in synch and piano notes flow like water throughout..Studio style perfection right here..Love E72 the most.
