The jam in this take blazes hotter than most any other - Jer throws an Eww! in there for good measure.

2nd half of a double encore - listen to Jerry's unique phrasing so different then later versions.

JG beams out killer tones while Phil crushes heads in the People's Repbulic.

Bird Song alert - delivers everything that's stated above - check it and you will see. Really, really nice one here.

'81 had some killer Althea's (Hi Essen!) and if you check out these two sleepers you might dig them - 4/10/83 & 9/4/83 (dark Bobby work on this one)

On Darkstar's recommendation on another list - this here does indeed scorch with Jerry firing sweet flares... love it!

I forgot how good this one is - powerhouse is right - whole show is massive every take is stellar. Take a spin and you will see - Miller/ Eaton drops you in on the floor.
