Dark Star
A breezy and pleasant intro gives way to a monstrous intra-verse portion that features some 'Uncle John's Band'-themed jamming.

Turn On Your Love Light
Dynamic. Not the best, perhaps, but a 25-minute version from DP16 that's definitely worth listing.

Morning Dew
First set opener, I really dig the MDs os this era. Still kind of sturdy and brisk but becoming the majestic ballad that it was in the 70s/80s.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
The forth live performance of these 2 songs put together. It starts out a little rough, then it evolves into a well paced and played China Rider.
1
Hard to Handle
Not too slow, bouncy, Pig confident, on his best game, and sounds like he wants to be there. Jam starting at 3:00 is a sonic gumbo.
2
Me and My Uncle
Bobby's vocals are some of the best I've ever heard. Bobby's voice and Jerry's guitar have a dance.
