Whether it's the 16th or 23rd, it's a killerdillerthriller. Ripping version, with a perfect transition from Truckin'.

Energy and power that struts its stuff. This show seems direly overlooked. Very nice mix and sound quality.

Beautiful jam and transition. The mix shows off Bobby nicely, which is rare for the era. His contribution is beautiful here. Enjoy.

Sultry swaggering deeply opiated vibe, with a hot harp solo. Was this Pig or Will Scarlet?

Exceptional version, slightly mellower tempo, with great harmonies and tight jamming. Surprised it's not here yet.

This is a stellar version, and should be much higher than 2 votes!

Donnie is right. This is liquid fire from start to finish. Parts of this show have air-play precision, note-by-note perfection and total balance. The BEW in the first set does. This closer JBG does too.

Part of a beautiful and mysterious suite. Truckin'>Jam>Dark Star>Morning Dew. The Dew comes blazing out of the funny, understated Star and captures the power and the beauty.

An inside-out Dark Star, starting with the beautiful, inspired jam out of Truckin' and hitting the lyrics almost as a side-event on the way to Morning Dew. Definitely listen from Truckin' forward, rather than starting on the track listing. Wonderful stuff.
