74 versions really captured the western tone well. Short and sweet.

Jerry calls for Bertha then proceed to royally flub the lyrics LOL. Solid bouncy version though.

Phil and Brent really escalate the dance party factor of this tune in later years. Great performance this night. Just sheer fun. Comes to awk end.

Cliche, to say, maybe, but this really is a hauntingly beautiful one. The echo on the "Casting" from Garcia is a nice touch. Lemieux said it was something done in post by an audio guy.. Was the only thing he messed with. Not mad at it in the slightest.

Accurate^ worthy of 4 blisterings hah. Great work, particularly hot stuff from Garcia & Lesh. The vocals on the "coming around" sound great from the whole gang.

Particularly good jam on Fire. Garcia goes beast mode. Some unique sounds from Weir. Keys dancing fairly elegantly around the jam.

Awesome little historical note. Good catch.
