Hot one!! Brent lays down some nice stuff, Bobby’s slide is… a thing. Then Garcia puts in some work!

Weir insists it’s time for another cowboy song. “This one rose straight to the top of the charts, of course we didn’t do it” great, consistent one

Donna lets out the most insane scream I’ve ever heard and the crowd goes wild lol. Fun one with harmonica action

One of those “surprised not to see this here” moments. A short, less soaring one than many this period, but fun nonetheless

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.

Winterland Arena

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.
