In this notoriously shaky year there are often gems to be found among the train wreckage. This BEW is an example. Jerry's solo is spot on

Jerry works very hard to put this one over the top. Check out his last solo

They almost never got this song right, so it's no wonder they stopped playing it. This time they did. Bobby doesn't oversing, drummers are on it.

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Jerry kills the middle solo and the interplay between him and Weir at the end is fantastic
Mexicali Blues

Nassau Coliseum

Brilliant contortions in the solo.
Playin' In The Band

The Spectrum

The jam after Ship of Fools will make you go wait a minute, and replay it from the beginning.
New Minglewood Blues
Feb. 19, 1982
Golden Hall, Community Concourse

I love it when Jerry plays angry. Check out the power chords. The Rango aud is incredible sounding.

Warfield Theater

Jerry sounds great in the first solo but this is all about Bobby's playing in the outro jam. Fuckin sick.
