Pigpen's funky organ and early Jerry and the boy, very driving sound for early Dead!

The boys were in a really nice place this night. Killer harp work and Jerry is smoking. This is one of the better shows of 71 IMO!!

Jerry's guitar is smoking here. The beat is really funky also. Always a crowd pleaser!

First version of this played in a while and you can hear the crowd road. What a contrast to the fast upbeat set taking it way down. Love it!!!

Funky as they get, this entire second set is as groovy as they come. What a treat!

What a cool version. The jam at 10:00 is one of the more exploratory ones I've heard. Way to nail it first time out boys!

Bobby's gonna blow a valve on this version, seriously as insane as I've heard him get. Definitely a heady version!!

First song they played in 77', the precision in this version is unbelievable. Maybe the first and best??

The only complete version with Alhambra which is a masterpiece, why they only played it once baffles me????
