Highlights for me were Bobby's voice bouncing around the hall and Jerry's super sweet tone.

Quick tempo and nice bounce, with some great band support under Jerry's triplet ideas during the solo.

Even the "Drums" from this show is a step-above, and > "Wheel."

I'm entering a Dylan/Dead kick, and it's because of things like this (and the Desolation Row from 5-10-1987).

You can tell Bobby's effort on the previous numbers lit a fire under the band's butt (and Jerry's vocals).

Again, not usually a fan of this pairing, but both are played quite musically tonight, and Bobby is working his ass off.

I confess that I've become less fond of this song each time I hear it, but this is incredibly musical.

Although I do wish the blessed drummers had stuck with that deep 16th note groove, which kept pushing the beat and deepening the pocket.
