Deep and weird, capping a set full of loose fun. They get into it and it's all business with a wild trans into UJB, slipknot tease, and a great outro.

Seems like they're just having a great old time jamming together. A loose, fun-filled 1st set capping off a great month in Dead history.

A beautiful monster with intrepid intricacies throughout. Rhythmic Jerry investigations of the theme plus Tom C. on celeste.

Massive and dark with fantastic interplay between everybody on stage. Doesn't quite melt down, but dances next to chaos just perfectly.

Even though the cleanup isn't so clear, Bobby is audible in the mix, which gives a good sense of what it could sound like if the magic soundboard ever gets found.... Apparently there isn't anything in the vault from this show.

Brilliant extended Slipknot, and one of the Franklin's that I used to dream about. The outro is sublime.

Don't let the B/B+ sound quality scare you away from this beast. Tremendous energy on this one. Deserves more votes!

Sounds like a bit of a tuning issue at first, but they sharpen up and roll on. "Majestic" describes it perfectly. This one goes an extra mile, extending gloriously on and sweeping you away with it.

Great show opener for this mostly overlooked show. The McDonald cleanup of the only known source is most welcome.
