Bobby belts it, Keith slides in perfect synchronicity. Don't miss the surprise " Johnny B. Goode" parts Garcia throws in.

In the transition in from "Wheel," you can hear some of the ideas Garcia brings into his solos during the mid- and late- May "TOO"s

The chords and initial drum beat said "NFA," the the groove kept saying "Iko."

Yes! Organic. Hive mind. Collective consciousness. Truly special stuff.

I personally thought this Bertha > GL was the weakest part of the show, but that's just me. I agree that this is a serious contender for the best of '77, though. The entire show is killer.

Just wanted to add that after living with this version for a while and checking out the whole show, I really like this version. Truly phenomenal playing.
