Wickedly jazzy and powerful; not as wild as 8/27, but it can hardly be faulted for that!

Amazingly hot; Jerry and Keith kick things up a notch about halfway thru the jam and it never lets up!

Tight, jazzy and a little freaky too. An underappreciated highlight of a great show.

Two from the Vault. Sharp and energetic. For its time, Garcia and Lesh hit a new level on this one .

A beautiful MLB jam followed by some of the freakest DS space you'll ever hear. Careful around this one...

Wow, thanks for this rec!!!! This is easily one of my new favorites. Jerry is just INSANE.

Monster version indeed, very emotional playing. Be sure to check out 5/11/77, though. Might be a little better, and is easily one of my new favorites thanks to Grendel.

Excellent show opener. Jerry's playing is very melodic, almost lilting.
