The previous night's version was tasty, but this one is delicious. The nomination for this one is long overdue. The whole show is quintessential '76

Opens the first electric set from the last (and best) show from the 8 night run at NYC's Radio City Music Hall. Its nomination is long overdue!

Alert! This one not a throw-away. The best one of '74, no foolin'. Played with a perfect balance of gusto, gumption & grit.

Jerry is at the helm here, with flurries of funky psychedelia. This one goes the distance….

Deserves more love.

There’s a great AUD recording of this show on the archive. I highly recommend. It’s very clear and Jerry sounds a tad high in the mix - a good thing here.

It’s all about the final solo. Get the matrix - one can really hear/feel the crowds appreciation.

A go-to version for the era.
