2
Hard to Handle
Great 'Bobby segment', as his solo has come to be known. Whole show overshadowed by the outrageous monster the next day, but still great fun.
13
Easy Wind
Powerful and driving blues jam, with a unique ending. Garcia tears this one up, and Lesh provides a great hollow bass sound.
6
Sugar Magnolia
Phil throws a bassline in the break before SD.
7
Morning Dew
They work up a head of steam and deliver what you seek on this one.
5
Good Lovin'
Not sure how we missed this one so far. Should be on the board.
5
St. Stephen
Out of GDTRFB into NFA.
3
Bertha
Show opener. Jerry soars with thunder from Phil.
2
Me and My Uncle
Solid early version with crisp vocals and Jerry sounding good.
2
Playin' In The Band
Solid version from the pre extended jam days.

Loser
Crisp, tight version. Jerry sounding good on vocals and guitar.
