Long crystal clear Jerry solos throughout and a great recording for '68. Gets tighter throughout the jam.

Fast, reckless, and smokin' hot. A must have for fans of '68 and all its psychedelic glory. Goes into a nice best New Potato Caboose too.

Succinct and powerful. A nice '68 set starting (!) with Dark Star and Stephen. Mellow.

Great extended spacey jam. Check out around 05:10 - 05:40 for what sounds impossibly like a FTM tease. PHIL !

Jerry's on fire in this show opener. Not my favorite song, but just a rippin' version here. Wish I could have been there....

Hardly recognisable for anyone familiar with the acoustic versions, but an absolute pleasure.

Inventive, energetic and fun. A beaut from one of the great months.

"Burn down the Fillmore gas the Avalon". Did I hear Bobby right around 2:35??? To answer my own question, it appears that Bobby started this as a dig at other venues when they were co-running the Carousel. These lines don't appear on Anthem.

Pure, clean high-flying jam. Mind-blowing how well they played in 11/4 without spontaneously combusting. Pig's organ never sounded so much like the organ on Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone". More early traces of the Bard's influence on the boys?
Eyes Of The World

Nassau Coliseum

Great 2nd set, yes, but this Eyes takes it well furthur... It's got everything - blazing, soaring and blisteringly fast. Really tops.
