Thoughtful, almost 11 minute version. Greasing it up before the monster versions of 77. Excllent nonetheless.

Smoked out of space. Some fanning for good measure, too.

Keeps the fun going after Touch. Killer version of Brent's best tune.

They kill the Touch to open the second set of this killer show. Lyrics nailed with summer tour energy.

Probably one of the greatest shows, but for some odd reason....doesn't get much hype. The set list is like a greatest hits and it is all played really well.

Yeah, the transition is sickleberry....Jerry has unique riff as Bob noodles NFA until it's a full blown NFA. Thanks, brah. With that being said...a cool jam occurs half way thru and this becomes one sweet NFA. Cajun vibe and all. Nothing like I have ever heard....sweet sweet call.

My brah darkstar67 recommended this. This version has some serious expressive Jerry vocals like its the first time singing the song. The outro ain't Winterland Oct. 78, but its gorgeous and has this cool vibe as Bob pushes NFA. Killer segue. Hey DS67....you doing dead and co Alpine?

The segment of Terrapin>D>O1>Space>Stephen>NFA is some of the tastiest stuff in GD history. Also known as Disc 3.
