The AUD is amazing. Keith shines, and everybody's into it. Bootstrap '76 knockin' down your door.

One of their truly psychedelic songs, on a truly psychedelic night. Incredible transition from Cryptical.

Seriously beautiful. This show keeps surprising me, there are some sweet nugs in '85.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Oct. 10, 1982
Frost Amphitheatre

Cements my belief that '82 China/Riders are top notch. They don't miss a note or beat here with the super China, cool and controlled transition into a walloping Rider with pounding Mickey fills.

Oakland Auditorium

Now this is the type of Space i like.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Devore Field

Okay Scarlet, cool transition, but WHAT A FIRE! Perfect vocal delivery, incredible jamming, ripping peaks by Jer, and groovy as all hell. My go to '85 Fire.
