Brilliant interplay between guitars. Convincing vox by Bobby.

Jerry takes charge in the jam and doesn't put a foot wrong. Waits for the others before the peak. Deceptively profound version.

They Love Each Other
May 8, 1977
Barton Hall - Cornell University

The first line of Jerry's solo, with the spaces and big intervals, is brilliant.
Playin' In The Band
April 14, 1982
Glenns Falls Civic Center

This goes into a very weird place that almost doesn't sound like the Dead, followed by one of the best pre-drums Bobby jams I've heard.
They Love Each Other
April 14, 1982
Glenns Falls Civic Center

Jerry was killing this tune in 82.
Bird Song
April 12, 1982
Nassau Coliseum

Jerry chases down some very interesting themes starting at around 4:30
Pretty Peggy O

Incredible touch and feeling in Jerry's solo.
