Samson and Delilah

Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

Hard-drivin ‘78 Samson. Drummers are on fire. Bobby breaks out his slide for the second break

Passionate vocals! Garcia plays some extremely unique leads during the instrumental - seems to go on a longer longer than usual by ‘78 standards.

It Must Have Been The Roses

The Spectrum

Perfect version of Roses. Delicately sung by Garcia and piano from Keith. The solo is extra long and unique. Has a "mission in the rain" feel to it.

The Spectrum

Really cool 2nd set CC Rider. Gritty and bluesy. Garcia plays some unique chords at the end

Ship of Fools
July 5, 1981
Zoo Amphitheater

Well sung and Brent tickles the ivories, creating the feeling of a ship at sea. Most importantly, Garcia's solo is emotion in every bend of a string

Terrapin Station

The Spectrum

Really cool moog synth from Keith during Lady with a Fan. The song sounds young because it is and Jerry puts a lot of energy into the vocals. Nice unique extended jam into the second part.
Samson and Delilah

The Spectrum

So much energy! Garcia's tiger is growling. Drummers in synch. Bobby raging on the mic. Even Donna sounds great.

Really cool moog moments from Keith
Brown Eyed Women

Agree with other posters here, solo goes on and on...

Very long extended jam to close this bastard out!
