Nice Peaks. Crypical Reprise is a monster.

Avalon Ballroom

Starts off very beautiful and mellow with Garcia driving the train, then flows masterfully, building to a blazing peak of glory at the end!

Nassau Coliseum

An intense, jazzy version that really holds your attention. Comparable to the 2/28 (Dick's Picks 28) version with the Philo Stop.

Indeed a wonderful version, one of my favorites of the year in fact.

P.N.E. Coliseum

Very fine version, but try 9/18/74 for a best-of-the-year contender.
The Music Never Stopped
March 5, 1981
Stanley Theater

Sort of a sloppy version, but they more than make up for it with an insanely ferocious jam with multiple Jerry peaks. Overall, this is one of the best I've heard.
