The magic of Portland, ME. This is the last Althea that really excites me until Bruce joins in. Jerry roars,Phil is present and Weir grinds the gears

This would be a great version to play for a newbie. It's as typical rock and roll the band gets. Jerry's riffing isn't quite as creative as some might wish but none the less the end jam is extremely head spinning.

Just fast forward to 4:10 and enjoy the wine(Jerry/Weir) and cheese(Vince!)

This and 6/14/91, 8/14/91 are all great versions worthy of best of year. This one's ending packs the most punch and never lets up, but is a little one dimensional compared to 6/14 and 8/14

Just had to vote this up. Instead of noodling like a mad man Jerry's styling is similar to his jamming back in '77-'78. Great little throw back.
