Black Peter
Peter's First Black Peter is The Dead's Best Black Peter

The build the final jam and its just waterfalls all over you.

Midnight Hour
great opening to a show
38

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Hot, compact ChinaCat jam, but the highlight is Jerry hammering the "headlight" lyric in Rider. Gave me chills (as most similar later versions do)

When Push Comes to Shove
Wow jerry, wow.

Row Jimmy
Great vocals from all and the solos are really sweet. Lesh is all over this and the reggae ending is nicely handled. Whole gig's a good 'un.

Promised Land
Peaks insanely
