Probably should be represented, Jerry seems to remember the words which sets it a cut above right there; small cut though

Beautiful solo; all else being equal that's what matters most...

This show is so long my brain is drooping by this point. I voted for it anyway, I'll have to listen to it first next time and see if it deserves it.

This might be the best ever. I listened to 11-11-73 today (for the zillionth time) and this too, and I like this better--the band has a lower center of gravity, more heft and cohesion, and gravity in the other sense--some years and mileage. The first minute alone is sublime--everyone is bubbling along playing slightly offset from each other, then Garcia calls the official start and they all come together seamlessly. I think Jerry jumps his cue with the first vocal, but no one misses a beat.

Yeah this is as good as you could ask for
Samson and Delilah

Yeah this is great

I usually skip this but I didn't today, and this version isn't half bad...
