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!

Fantastic version, one of the greatest.

Agreed. Worth a listen, gets quite spacey (with Brent channeling some 70s electric jazz for good measure).

Cuca, you'll love the ripping jam into TOO. I've never heard anything like it.

This is a mighty fine version! I love your descriptions. As someone who just moved out of the great state of Maine, there's nothing like turning something great up, sitting out on the porch with something tasty to consume, and living the dream.

I think they actually rather mangle the transition (they're in different tempos for godssakes) but that's part of the magic for me.
