Wildly jammed, possibly the finest acoustic version ever, despite the skeevy sound

Dick's Picks 11 - Jazzy and bouncy with some extraordinary melodies from Jerry

Very nice Garcia fretwork. Intense yet breezy, if that makes sense...

Yeah, idk how this one wasn't here yet! Such a legendary show.

No doubt a legendary version, but IMO 5/22/77 smokes this one. No contest.

Absolutely! I agree this one has it all over 5/8/77.

Excellent flowing and moody version with a great Garcia lead space transition into Stella B.

Very good version, but I like the ones from May '77 a bit better. The 2nd instrumental break is really interesting though, with Keith and Jerry getting into a sweet little duel of sorts.
