He's Gone
The jam at the end is pure heaven. Sometimes referred to as a Caution Jam, but not really. The segue into a monster Other One Phil bomb is unrivaled.

The Other One
Redick Phil bombs bring this one in. Shorter than some of the other classics but loud and intense.

Stagger Lee
Lots of submissions from this show. 2 well-played sets - this is my favorite Stagger Lee, not sure exactly why it just has IT.

Not Fade Away
I usually don't go for the slower ones, but the band is on fire and Garcia's got a bone in his teeth.

New Minglewood Blues
This whole show has that extra little magic spark. Brent definitely energized them for the fall 1979 tour
5
Drums
This is a fantastic Drums at this epic show. Sandwiched between a terrific O1 and just as good NFA.

Drums -> Space
Following one of the most powerful versions of The Other One ever, this Drums is on par with the rest of the best show of 1979. The goods!
