Perfect execution, akin to the Europe '72 version in terms of precision, Kreutzzman is all over the kit. Fiery Garcia licks reaching incredible peaks

Oh my, the band interplay is absolutely top notch and so mature. Ultimate boogie-gusto, Jerry givin' his all and singin' with soul. Great shit.

This blew my mind at the movies, the vocal jam at the end was insane on the big screen

Upon furthur listening... This one has some serious magic behind it. Amazing '94 dead. The boys bring it full scale here.

Always stunned at how powerful this version is. This is the perfect version. It's so effing good. Best one ever played. Bottom line.

the entry from UJB -> Dew is otherwordly for some reason. Given that there's very little notes played. Just has that feeling.

Keith stands out in this one for me. God damn this one is great. They nail it. Ending jam, keith's piano slide/jerry's guitar work is solid. Great version.

Dunno man. Doesn't come close to 3/20/77 or 4/12/78 for me. But great rendition never the less.
