Am I not correct in saying that 30 trips has the complete show of this night?

You know I was listening to this again (can never get enough) and was thinking, usually Garcia would go slide on the solos on '77. I think most had them if I'm not mistaken. Wonder if he went for the slide and dropped it or it wasn't there and he was just like "F' it....going big then" Feel like when there was a technical difficulty he made it shine and brought a little more oomph.

Hey Grendel just downloaded Charlie's latest version of this off shnflac.net That is the most clean version yet. When I was reviewing this I was a Wana Gummy deep and listening on headphones. Must have been the mood or whatever. While nothing touches that second solo on 3/20 for a later day RJ this one is goooood. Be curious as to what you think. As always we are constantly "searching for the sound". Right?

If this was in better quality it would be safe to say that this one would be on top of this list.

Cucamongo nailed it. F@$! Jerry does indeed attack the audience and leaves no one with a face.
