Extended and ripping. Tape has a few sound issues, but its listenable. Sick version.

On point, quick, and plain sick.

16 minutes, with trippy vibes going on throughout. Sick jamming, vocals are not too bad, but could be better.

This one lifts off. Massive rendition. Garcia melodically pushes this one to multiple peaks, a fantastic version.

Friend of the Devil

Broome County Arena

Do they nail the vocals or what! So soulful, Jerry's voice is absolutely perfect in this. Each note has a powerful resonance, they play each break well, and there is no lagging. Excellent version.

This version is a fuckin' smoker. Definitely a highlight of a great show.

yes, check out this solo. Somebody splash some water on Garcia, he is on fire.

Smokin' version. Check out the disco beat they put on this Explosive Mexcali > M&MU

Community War Memorial Auditorium

Jerry just falls into a perfect groove and keeps it going for a long time. The crowd goes nuts, and he just keeps fanning. Vocals are on point throughout, and the drummers keep up. Lesh and Weir are in stride, but Jerry keeps this up at a full sprint. Showering a beautiful array of licks, and solos. One of the best ever.
