A rare and different tune. Real nice transition into epic Playin-UJB from Go to Nassau...

Stunned this ain't here yet. Next night is a famous one. But this 2nd set opener is strong and rugged. Nice moment at "born to be a bachelor..."

Wow! Can't believe this hasn't made the cut yet. Rips and roars out of poignant China Doll. Almost become a Smokestack... Super strong show!

DeadBase calls it a Dark Star Jam. There is not much of a hint of a Dark Star-ish melody, and the date is debatable. But everyone needs to hear this!!

Yep. Great Drumzpace-Wheel sandwich. Entire show worth another listen.
To Lay Me Down

A beauty!!! You can hear a pin drop halfway through, until all of a sudden Jerry goes a little loud and swiftly rips some sad and savage notes....
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Coliseum

One of the best of the early 80s. Some incredible stuff happening in these 20-odd minutes...
