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!

It's a must listen. To start off a show like this is simply magical. Do yourself the favor and spin it now and enjoy!

I was blown away how killer this version is after a mind blowing entire show. This is a must listen/love show!!

Starts off pretty regular and then....blastoff into pure funk heaven. I've never heard a better version for sure. Most excellent pick!

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Jerry just keeps building and building the jam during China into a fantastic intro jam Rider. Excellent choice!
