2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

Get ready for one of the best NFAs ever with a jam that follows, a premier blend of improvisational jazz jamming...you want to hear this.

I got a “how the fuck have I missed this?” situation going on right now. I know I’ve heard this before but how the hell have I forgotten it? This one’s delicious . Bobby Weir on Riddim Guitar hallelujah!! and Jerry smoking an M80 stealing faces while the whole goddamn band goes ripshit. Not kidding!

Hey DS I was at this show and yes this does have that time/spacexcrowd calculation - t/sxc= Zfactor (aka fullblown Dead nirvana.) Thanks for bringing it back to my attention - I'd like to hear what you think of 4/14/84 and 4/19/84 for that matter. The Hampton is my all time favorite and I didn't even see that one while I did see this and the 4/19 take. Now I'm going to smoke a jibber on the beach on my way home and listen to them all. Whatever! hahahahah haave a great weekend. I need this one.

Unreal like all their best jams - take the trip and see. Not a tune I normally listen to but this is not to be missed if you’ve never heard it. Tighten up jam is one for the ages.
