Very strong outro jam. Jerry may have had shaky fingers but he really busted his ass to deliver here.

Jerry is absolutely dialed in, hot solo. Basically unknown show due to only AUDs avail.

Jerry in stunning voice. Tearjerker version

Really beautiful version, Jerry clearly emotionally invested in the delivery. Great playing too despite the year. Worth a listen.

Worth an upvote for the novelty and the fun, but like the Bertha from 2/18/71, it's in its infancy and not very solid yet. Pretty clear after this performance why they shelved it for 2 years.

I see someone else was listening to SiriusXM this morning...just a plain ol lovely version, nothing crazy but 81 has such a great sound
Playin' In The Band

Anyone else skip to the end of the first verses when a playin' comes on so you dont have to deal with the body of the song? Honestly, and I know this might upset people, Playin' is a very weak song. The jams out of it are of course generally sublime but I can never enjoy listening to Bob scream "playin playin in the band" over and over again. I just want the jam, man. Great version btw

Very beautiful version. Lovely, flowing jam and perfect vocals. Brent and Jerry sound beyond wonderful together singing the last verse after the jam.
