A sprawling and celebratory 2nd set opener to a fantastic under the radar show from 1987

They really nail this version. Jerry's solo is epic.

I love the way they melt into it from PITB.
Around and Around

Oakland Coliseum Arena

I never really pay attention to this song but this one caught my ear. Bob's on point and I really like Jerry's tone and solo.
Little Red Rooster

Oakland Coliseum Arena

This is a great version. Bob's vocals are on point, great audience participation during the hounds begin to howl part, Jerry shreds. You can hear how palpable the energy is.
Playin' In The Band
Sept. 24, 1972
Palace Theatre

This one bubbles nicely before a strong psychedelic peak that simmers down into a sultry and jazzy refrain then boils back up to another peak then finds its way to a phenomenal reprise.
