I believe this is the first ever Tighten Up jam - Phil and Bob intiate it when Jer breaks a string. Beautiful.

Really unique Star. Some unusual themes explored, including The Other One and Lovelight!

OMG! Most intense Sugar Mag jam ever! Jerry WILL NOT QUIT. Vocal entrance is real sloppy, but it hardly matters - you MUST hear this!!!

Oh my god!!! Jaw dropping Jerry noodles on this one...a new favorite for sure.

Starlight Theatre

A very nice version, but imho it's not as hot as the versions which surround it (7-28 and 8-7-82) or 5-1-81 which is voted as the current "best".
