This LSU Tiger gets to recommend a Baton Rouge U.S Blues! Few vocal flubs but about as rockin as any other that year!

Rockin! And Jerry got all the words ha! No really, such a fun, solid 83 performance.

Jerry’s hitting some real rockstar riffs. Does nearly fall onto its face into Good Lovin though

Terrapin Station
March 24, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

I really have yet to find one that feels as true to the grand, inspired feel of Terrapin Station as this performance. Terrapin Station, in my mind, doesn’t lend itself to “perfection” or being “clean,” “tight” as the Swing Auditorium ‘77 performance or Winterland ‘78. This one feels right because it’s free and feels like they’re really in pursuit of something big.

Oh fuck yes. Spacey, thundering ‘78 realness. This is great.

Still a top one for me. There is a brief moment in Jerry's solo where I get this feeling like the I get slightly lifted off the ground and dropped back down. Hard to describe, but I think about it a whole lot.

Pretty sloppy vocally and instrumentally.

Great Dew.
