New Minglewood Blues
How is this not already here? Probably my favorite version, every member just rips the song a new one.

Not Fade Away
I had to put this up. It's basically NFA "containing" Iko, as if Iko (the first played) sprang up from the body of NFA, rather than a song of its own

Sugar Magnolia
Joyous end to one of the happiest second sets I've heard. I love the sound of the hall in the huge hits as they move to "Sunshine Daydream."

Uncle John's Band
Encore from another great '77 show. Garcia just smiles in the verse, and the end is heavy. Encore of my favorite come-down set ending.
