Keith and Jerry are manic pinball flippers bouncing their solos off each other here. Fun set closer.

Smooth and satisfying, rouses the crowd right up too. What a sweet show this is.

Fun, raucous, and rowdy, but full of tight ensemble jamming and a nice Bobby/Jerry balance, allowing you to hear Cowboy Bob's great backup work.

Jerry's voice is at his most elegant, showing some smoke. Keith is supremely intuitive and beautiful, the band goes higher and higher. Great version.

These early ones have such brilliant swagger, you can really hear the gospel power to them

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.
