A great one from summer '90. Vocals are crisp, musically the organ work is great and the band is tight and all in the flow.

Jerry solo for most of it with some effects from time to time. Unique. And then it goes into Dew

This song is not really in a "heady" format, but I always liked it as a 1st set tune. This version is well.played as is this show.

Yes 1984. I love the ups that happen in this year. This version has a lot of great energy from the boys. Mid-song solo is very strong.

B O M B s! That may sound of character but I'm talking about the ones we all love. Triumphant version with lots of Phil.

The morning dew that keeps on giving and giving. Everyone is feeling it.

The only way to close one of the greatest shows ever, is with this Phil-bomb-laden version of Dew.

The acid jazzgrass is amazing. Veneta or Spectrum it's tough to pick one. If you're in the mood for a teeth grinder you go with Veneta if you want a psychedelic bluegrass jam band to take you away then it's 9/21. My choice is this one overall.
