Billy's doing some interesting stuff on the drums here! And excellent solo from Jer! Vocals too!

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.

Upvote!! This one is great. So sharp. Drums on point. Funkastic ending jam. Awesome keyboard fills. The whole shebang!

Also: the vocals are fantastic, especially at the start. Sounds like a mediocre high school choir, which is speaking highly of Grateful Dead vocals.

Wonderfully standard HCS. The end before the jam just a few seconds before the Askin' You Nice verse gets real cool, and that particular verse is so sharp. The bleed into Space is good, classic early 70s heady Dead jamming. No more, no less.
