This one really soars and rivals 5/7/78 as my favorite.

Very powerful version with fun jamming and a raucous ending from a show I neglected for too long

If nothing else check out jam from 4:10-6:31 it's insane. Recording is mostly Jerry, Keith and Phil but it works.

For Bobby slide fans, great ripping version from their killer first set since Egypt. Jed--->Straw are fire!

Jerry's MIDI will take you to a safe place. Vinny can't be denied! I consider this song to be Bobby's best when it comes to rock n' roll jamming and he brings the familiar crunch of this era. WAH-wah-wah-wah-WAH!

If there were a SBD of the electric sets this show would be much better received. Vicious TMNS (listen to Ace during the build up!) but it doesn't stop there.... The setlist fills most of my needs and the band delivers!

So there isn't a SBD.... Get over it and listen to Jerry lead the band through a bouncy parade of explosions! Weir firing from a revolver of sound and the drummers undeniably contribute
