Awesome version. Listen to Jerry from the start and especially his solo (and Phil). This spring tour comes to life right here.

Augusta Civic Center

The depth of feeling in Jerry's note bends at the beginning of the coda makes this version remarkable.
Cold Rain and Snow

Red Rocks Ampitheatre

Listen to Phil on this one. Crazy, crazy, crazy. Listen to the Suraci aud.
China Doll

Providence Civic Center

This is a beautiful China Doll with just the right lurching, hesitant quality the song requires. Great coda jam at the end, Bobby and Phil especially, with a slight Crazy Fingers tease.
Estimated Prophet

Philadelphia Civic Center

Monster version. You may not think so considering how loudly Jerry plays the wrong chord coming out of the first solo, but as is so often the case, he makes up for it in the jam. Listen to him reiterate the theme at around 10 minutes and then 12. Bobby's whammy bar playing is sublime.

Very dark and frightening jam. Well worth a listen.
