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.

I think it lacks some of the nuances of tempo and texture their performances would come to have, but I'm up voting for Jerry's heart-stoppingly emotive vocals.

Jerry really captures the cowboy vibe of this, and his playing is hot. Listen to young Bobby.

Really hot stuff. Jerry patiently grows several long phrases.
