This one is sick! I think '76 is an underrated year for some reason, doesn't get a lot of talk, but there are some gems

always thought '72 was the year of the jack straw's, but this is a cool version. By all means not a best ever, but cool one from an iconic show.

4-12-78 is pretty similar.. and it's on youtube, jerry and bob doing windmills on stage while the whole crowd goes nuts at those solid power chord jams

Glad someone noticed, this version is insane. Watch the youtube version, to see jerry and bob doing windmills and the whole band going insane, with the crowd following them. It's heady to say the least. :D

Listen for where Phil lesh blows a speaker cabinet out and they keep jamming.. its like 2 minutes from the end, makes a synth of doom sound as if aliens are touching down. Holy shit
