This version is big ol' fun! Bobby's very enthusiastic on the backing vocals.

This isn't here because...? Totally hot, Jerry and Brent experiment with some interesting tones during the jam. Unique. From a flamethrower of a show.

Along with "Touch" and "Candyman," one of the big emotional highlights of Jerry's return.

Nice Phil / Jerry interplay into "Terrapin."

The more I listen the more this becomes maybe my favorite post-Brent version. cgarces, I remember you mentioning you're not big on this song, but I'd be curious to hear your take on this version.

This could use a couple of daps. Best version of a year that was not the best for the band or this duo. Not an unmitigated classic, but still very good.

This "Other One" is such a delicious appetizer for the main course that is the "Dew." Listen up, this is explosive.

No debate on this one. Beautiful.

One of the best. Sweet as honey. Jerry sounds a little sharp vocally but I don't look to the Dead for perfection or shit like that. The passion is all there.
