Awesome near 7 minute Playin that starts to go out there as it would much more in a few months. Really interesting period for the band imo

This is heady as hell. Got recommended this one and it’s a top notch version that I’d highly recommend to any slower FOTD fans. Great solos by Brent and Jerry and his vocals sound fantastic for the time period

Unique intro solo that is super cool. This second set rivals the much more popular night before

The juxtaposition of this Deal after the first ever Playin sandwich is so wonderful, what’s that saying? The Grateful Dead weren’t the first to do it , they’re the only ones doing it. The best.
