Very nice '83-version coming out of Space, which features an interesting jam into Playin' reprise. Bonus track on DaP 39.

Okay, so it's El Paso, but it sounds like Keith enjoyed the Big Sky 'cause this dude is ON throughout this show

Strange to not see this already on here. The boys are on (as they are throughout this legendary show). And listen to Billy!

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Iowa State Fairgrounds

Obviously a classic, but I just have to comment on Jerry’s insanely idiosyncratic playing on this one. Most evident in the China Cat, in which his solo becomes increasingly atonal before the whole band snaps into the ‘transition part’. Fucking badass.
