Just listened to the second set of this (GD set). This show is AWESOME! A set truly unlike any other. Why oh why didn't they play these tunes more!

The notes from Garcia's solo bounce around that centuries old hall like pinballs shot from cannon

Deadhead 21 check out spring 78 for elongated bridge solos. 4/16/78 has always been one of my favorites and then there's 7/8/78, this was always my bellwether version.

Just made a comment on the latest Dave's Picks about the Mason's. This one puts all others to absolute shame....period. F'kin A!!

Fillmore Auditorium

Never fully appreciated what a kick ass tune this is. It was always that weird lyrical song that was short lived. However, what a Completely RIPPIN' f'n song. They rock this mother! I think this is my favorite of the 3 from the new Dave's Picks

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

This is THE definitive version. No question. Way better than the sterile may 77 version...IMHO
