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.

Great rec, this version definitely kicks major ass. One of my favorite '78s.

This is the infamous "Washoe zephyr" show but they are definitely ON for this number!!! Like Keith's piano work going into the jam and Garcia is just burning as brightly as that headlight...
