This requires headphones and a taste for the old tapes days - if you got that you're in for a pounding.

Civic Arena

Jerry throwing down the distorted country skronk with Bobby delivering the sweet vox. Cut at the end does not distract from fine delivery of 99%.

The 2nd Jam is the gift that keeps giving - check it out to hear why - unreal jam, unreal show. Super Old Testament styled Dead.
The Music Never Stopped
Dec. 7, 1981
Des Moines Civic Center

Jerry sprays the fire with a kerosene hose on the final jam. I feel he made up for missing the middle jam tempo shift where he got ahead of himself and blazed by the buildup before the drop. A sbd of this would launch it up the standings at least for '80's renditions.
