Man does this version have a good bounce to it. I would put this version up against any version from the 80's.

This version doesn't quit. Jerry's solo is relentless

Check out the really groovy pre-drums jam that comes out of this UJB.

Great swing to this version. Excellent Brent and Jerry solos. A gem of a show from an odd tour.

The NFA jam is bluesy and chill before strolling into a great GDTRFB and then triumphantly returning to NFA. Great execution here.

A very jazzy and relaxed version till the psychedelic mind melt that occurs during the last 4 minutes.

Great version! Better than the 46 minute monstrosity that took place a few days later in Seattle.

I'll need to give this one a few more listens I think. I found it to be quite boring. Not as good as the PITB that was played in Vancouver a few days prior.
