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.
