Just a damn near perfect performance. Shocked not to see this one submitted. One of MANY highlights from this show.

Stupidly heavy, shades of early heavy metal on this one. Incredible controlled chaos that explores so much. A very tight version.

Phil joyously expresses himself on this. A gun shot is heard on this one signaling a jam, and the William Tell Bridge is really well played. Excellent

Sandwiched between Truckin’ and Eyes, this jam takes me to checkerboard floors and red curtains. Deserves its own place. Unique Jerry lines.

I adore any version of this tune. This one is particularly joyful and full of life.

^1000% agree. I prefer this from the album version. You really cannot go wrong with either or, but I love this version for its urgency and gradient landscapes this version is able to portray. What a special night.

Jerry's tone is particularly haunting this night. This version is dripping with lysergic ooze.
