Overall this show isn't a standout, but I love me some nice space. Also dig the "Dark Star" teases at the end!

Worth it to hear what Bobby does to sweet Jane... you'll know it when you hear it. Worth a giggle.

Jerry plays some nice angular lines (ex. first solo), and this features a decent vocal performance.

Everything from this night is well above average. And listen to Keith!

I can't add anything new to what you've all said, but I full agree.

Thanks nonoyolker! I've got a hankering to explore, and I've learned a lot of great shows from this site. Care to recommend one of your favs?

I hate using the term "stand out" on a night when the entire band is playing *really* well collectively and individually, but this is absolutely a superior version. Many thanks for turning me onto this show!!

Nice reading. Slight misstep at the end of the solo, but that's me being super picky, and is the first possible one I've heard yet in the show. So glad you recommended this!!

Want to add something about Keith's playing on this... I don't know what rig he's on, but it sounds gnarly here.
