WTH! Hot as shit! Most versions in this time period are 8 mins, but there’s almost a full minute worth of extra jamminess! Heady!

Poster did not make note of the incredible jam due to Bobby’s mic. Giving 2/5/78 vibes.

I agree with Grendel Books, 5/1/81 is the better version. Right off the bat on 5/1/81 Jerry is ballistic. This is only ahead due to it being released as a Dave’s Picks.
