You need to prepare yourself for this one. First, avoid interruptions. Send your phone calls straight to voicemail. Feed the dog beforehand so he doesn't start barking mid-song. Secondly, don't lose sight of your surroundings. It's very easy to lose touch with reality during this one - it drops you down a rabbit hole quite quickly. Do a common household task - empty the dishwasher, fold the laundry - while listening, to ensure you remain grounded in the objective physical realm throughout.

This one hits you look a sock to the face coming out of "He's Gone." This whole show is just amazing.

VERY NICE late day version. Jerry's weathered voice works well here.

Listened to this in traffic during the flash floods in NYC. Such a nice, tight "Eyes." Phil is especially good here.

I love this one. Brent's keyboard gives it a really dark edge you wouldn't expect from "Dancin'" of all songs. Segues seamlessly into "Bird Song." What a show. Jerry's on target all night. Love these shows.
