Shocked that I get to submit this a day after the 50th anniversary! Incredible version with a very melodic, well-structured solo and a great SSDD!

Was "Promised Land" not the opener? I see it listed in all setlists, yet missing from the board...strange. Very nice "Sugaree" regardless!

Keith is very creative on this one. Great capper to an all-time great show!

Really wired version from all parties here amidst one of the best second sets (and shows) ever!

The harmonies are fantastic on this one. Not a song I'm usually a huge fan of, but I love this one!

Stunningly gorgeous. I don't think I've heard wider dynamic contrasts on any other version, nor do I think I've heard them so smoothly executed on any other...
