A tad abrupt on the ending but a fun one! They played a mighty swell one the night before so they probably figured 'might as well' play it again

If you like listening to Jerry play then you'll like this Franklins, straightens out a somewhat sloppy start of the show!

Boston Garden

Love the pedal steel style licks Jerry plays throughout... definitive version for me. This + So Many Roads + Promised Land to wrap up the set is an emotional roller coaster!
