The slower tempo here lets Jerry and Keith stretch out some during their solos.

Startled not to find this here. Def. best of Palladium run, and can stand toe to toe with the rest of the month.

fantastic version with great Bobby/Donna. Everyone else is just trying to match their emotional performances.

Just more stellar May '77 balladry.

Nice call Moberg! Sweet > from the “Dancin’” fade out. Nice first solo. Drums kick up a notch before the final the end. Crowd loves it. Absolutely worth a listen.

Vocals are good (Donna’s having an on night). Crowd twigs during “in NYC” line. Shorter but very coherent solo from Garcia. Fade out at end performed rather well.

Also, "Estimated" followed by "Jed" is too perverse to pass up.

Moore's AUD is a bit boomy on the low end (I agreed with others on the LMA who thought the band sounded too far away on the other source). I dealt with it (it's not that bad), but if it bugs you, throw it into your favorite editing program. Don't let it deter you from hearing this!

It ain't my vote! I definitely think this is the better of the two.
