Another great performance from a seriously neglected show, tight Dead w/incredible sound, great Weir vox and awesome Jerry guitar, strong all the way

Outstanding and unusual version. What's different about it? Well, I never heard Brent play like that before! And Bobby's slide practice is mostly excellent.

I haven't systematically listened to Bird Song versions but I am a big and discriminating fan of the song and this is a topnotch performance.

Like everyone else said: slinky, funky, crunchy, dirty, hot.
