Underrated show here, apparently. This is a good version from an excellent show.

Starting to be a little disco-inflected, but none the worse for it; Garcia is firing away...

Really solid version; about as good as it gets

Rather surprising this hasn't been submitted, this show seeks a bit underrated in general. Garcia gets majorly vicious here.

The release sounds good but I don’t yet know whether it actually sounds better, as this already had excellent sq. I love Jerry’s tone on this night so much it hurts. EDIT: at times Lesh could be a tad louder, which is the only (slight) flaw

I think she just about pulls it off this time. A rather even-keeled version, with a little excitement just before the return…

Very nice version and Garcia’s first solo goes down like crack

The breaks have not yet developed much. Garcia is very loud and sounds great on the SBD so this rendition is nevertheless very enjoyable

Garcia’s tone on this night is exceptional
