I know they should have played Dark Star in Egypt. But this is a fantastic EP. Dynamic, dramatic, Jerry on fire.

The jam charges into dark, weird territory

Jerry is wide awake in this jam. The way he starts it is exceptional.

There is no Bird Song in this show
Space

The space into So What is great. The one after drums is even better. Jerry and Bobby get into something.

This is the moment Jerry actually emerges from his coma.
