Dancin' in the Streets
Dancin->Drums->The Other One is truly a great sequence for the Bobby fans out there. Really cool interesting stuff.

Brown Eyed Women
Overlooked show probably due to the middle AUD quality, but listen here and you get pure Jerry perfection, plus a possible explosion on stage.

The Music Never Stopped
MLB makes a mini-return 4 minutes in when Jerry pulls Phil out of the song for some fun. MLB is the origin of TMNS. Here they are together.

The Other One
Rare for '76, it starts a bit rough, but then finds its gear and blasts off. It sounds a bit like a mid-80s version to this head.

Might As Well
From Cincinnati `76 & also apparently on of the rare times this rocker was used to close a set! Also the pick of the day for 11~9~23 Dead days

Sugar Magnolia
They charge into this one just as the Other One is coming to a close. Some sloshy moments in the final SSDD jam but they bring it home for sure.
3
Its All Over Now
Unusually professional sounding for a cover. This one is nice and tight with just the right amount of bounce.
1
Candyman
All the detail and suspense you'd expect from a Fall '76 Candyman. Nothing wrong with that shiz.
1
They Love Each Other
Groovy, and some REAL nice solos by both Jerry and Keith. This one's got a little edge to it too.
1
Tennessee Jed
Bob and Jerry trade licks throughout, but it gets REAL hot toward the end. Twin country twangers absolutely killing it. Great one!

New Minglewood Blues
Dirty, mean, sleazy, and slick. Some top-notch drumming here. Nice and ugly - just the way this song should be.
