Long and adventurous and moody (24+ min). First concert after Pig died. You can hear their sadness in places.

Soaring and majestic. Melodic soloing and tight group work. Unfortunately incomplete on the archive. Where is the rest?

The band is playing all over this version. Great collective jam, Jerry and Keith sound great despite sound quality problems.

High energy, tight and exuberent show opener on this epic (DP28) last night in one of the great months in Dead history.

Beautiful harmonies. Some of the New Riders were there for it.

Good call: I'm much more of a '60s and '70s Head, but this show just bursts out. I always loved this song when I got to hear it in concert, so I'm happy to see it up here - on the same day that I'm listening to this concert for the first time in years. Reminds me why I loved the Dead during Brent's time, too.

Top choice grade A. Tight and right. I keep coming back when I need my '77 fix. May also be the single most insane show opener ever.

Help us C. Miller! This show deserves a cleanup! Oops (later the same day), I mean THANK YOU, Charlie Miller. Your cleanup is much appreciated. Skip the other version heads.
