Surprised this one isn't listed. Nice mellow version with super clean playing by JG. Fantastic show.

I'm not always the biggest Mexicali fan, but Jerry's playing on this is dope. Sounds to me like there are a few Big River teases here. Good stuff.

This one starts off kinda run of the mill, then Jerry lays down a sick solo starting around the 4 minute mark. Great JG show as a whole.

JG rocks this. Fozzy Bear voice and all :) Speaking of that, I notice that his voice gets this Fozzy Bearish quality around Summer '84, then lasts through '86. '85 is peak Fozzy. Around Fall '84 is when he started gaining noticeable weight too, so I think there's a correlation. Great show though.

Jerry’s big solo in Loser is one of my very favorite parts of the Grateful Dead lexicon, and this is a great example of him nailing it. Sizzling heat!
