Outrageous version. Takes a second to get the mix dialed in, but man they blow the roof off. This has to be one of the best Wall of Sound shows.

Dick's Picks 22 anyone?? 68 tone is honestly incredible, and this is a perfect example

Grate version... listen carefully at the beginning you can hear Jerry yell "put your acid in!"

Frost Amphitheatre

Good version from 82, though clearly not on the level of many from 72-74 or 77.
Bird Song

The Spectrum

Not bad for the time period, though the Branford one is far more transcendent
Me and My Uncle

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

This is just the sickest me and my uncle. Easily the best me and my uncle > big river combo they did.
Sugaree

Fox Theatre

Why am i just now getting this dicks pick??? This sugaree is massive, better than 10/17/83.
Sugaree

Hartford Civic Center

This and 5/22 are by far the definitive sugarees. Massive jamming that you don't hear very often on Sugaree.
