Jerry and Donna sound great in this uptempo version. Jerry's solo smokes too, of course.

Sweet bluesy outro jam. Spring ’78 was very good to poor Peter.

Seemingly looser and jammier than some, with some great musical conversations.

Slick, efficient Garcia solo, plus some cool flourishes by the Godchauxs.

Perfectly phrased and chosen melody lines from Jerry. Another astonishing FOTD of the era.

Fillmore West

This is an exquisite Peter from a great year for that song.
