Builds to a nice climax after some interesting lines from Garcia. Whole show is worth a listen.

Ends a great Set II sequence. Listen to the drummers play along with the whistle blower in the audience!

If this had been tracked along with the preceding "Playin,'" everyone would have said "of course." This whole second set is killer.

Exploratory version right out of "Terrapin." Donna sounds great, and Phil leads the jam.

The transition into the "Terrapin Station" material is particularly strong, with powerful playing from Keith.

Must-hear jamming. Unbelievable power and energy. Pig adds a whole other level to the following Feedback.

Branford's solo is good, even Bobby's slide solo is better than average (although Bruce steps on him and then doesn't continue supporting). Gotta love this big three-segue opener.
