Sugaree
Sept. 26, 1980
Warfield Theater

The oft-overlooked electric sets from the Warfield/Radio City acoustic runs. '77 be damned, THIS is a Sugaree.

Bobby making sure this show doesn't get lost in the shuffle. Great ad-libs, and the full howling range we love.

Whole show is a hidden classic- but whatever you do DO NOT skip this Sugar Mags. Truly seamless after the set break, Dead at their finest.

Me and My Uncle

Jerry manages to fit even more extra notes in, despite this being a way uptempo cut. Maybe the most seamless trans into Big River.

Really locked this one in as a contender for 'definitive' towards the end.

Jerry fumbles the final line, going for "That path is yours" instead of "If I knew the way". Good chuckles were had on stage, and the crowd responds kindly with huge applause and powerful claps to keep the beat strong.

Bobby's vox throughout this Warfield run have been on point. I think the quieter, smaller theater has him keeping the howling down.
