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....

This is why I listen to the Dead.

Check out the C.Miller mix for great rocking balls-out Winter '73 Dead. Perfect mix with every instrument clear and balanced.

Stealth show with pristine versions throughout a perfect 1st set - and then the 2nd set just takes off.

Listening to this one a lot this week, and I agree with ferretstew. The band is just so tight and together. The energy builds and builds, and this version stands out for its coherence and the arc of its composition. I also love 02 Dec., which gets much weirder, but this one shows off their virtuosity.

Never have I dug this song so much as this version. Sweet but strong.
