Jerry doesn’t miss a beat. Video shows him deeply into this version onstage and you can hear it in his vocals. This one can stand with the greatest.

Spacey and well played. Vince has some sick fills and Jerry plays very strongly. Better than 4/2/95

Very hot version, Jerry’s on fire in the solo and his vocals are perfect. This show is massively underrated vs much of the rest of this fall tour.

Great Vince version. Super hot. Follows the first west coast Attics. Jerry was really feeling it.

Glorious return of lovelight to regular rotation. Phil leads with the riff out of NFA. Can’t imagine what this was like

One of the heaviest Dead moments ever. Stunning version, Jerry's vocals are as strong as you've ever heard em

Solid version, and very interesting fuzzed out tone from Jerry in the end solo. Brent's doing some weird shit too. rather unknown and hot show
Uncle John's Band

Folsom Field, University of Colorado

Ok come on folks even if just for the stunning first UJB this deserves more votes. Absolutely torn to bits in the outro and (very smooth) transition to playin.

The Music Never Stopped

Super tight. Perfect re-entry from spaciness into the end jam. Jerry is on FIRE, Bob right along with him. Everyone always talks about the Wharf Rat>Sugar Mag and for good reason, but now that there's a very good AUD out there, no reason to not enjoy the whole show.
