Holy crap....how did I miss this show? Beautiful, soaring version from a very "on" night for Jer and the boys

I don't believe this one's not represented!! 22 minutes long, Brent's first, Jerry's jammin at warp speed....slowing into powerful drums

Maybe not "greatest" but an interesting discordant sort of jam makes this early version worth a listen

It's a bloody shame they chopped up this show to make Road Trips vol 1. I'd love to hear this show in it's entirety.

Sucks that this is a DP and nearly impossible to find a good AUD copy! Could be one of the most inspired solos Jerry ever laid down. Beautiful man, just beautiful.

Great Pick! Great show. Finding a show like this on The Archive is what makes it the greatest place on the web! Long Live the Archive!
