It Must Have Been The Roses
Out of a sweet Half-Step and into oblivion, Weir and Keith really shine

Big River
Jerry and Bob are off the hook flying off the handle going for it! Prime time stuff

The high energy middle of a spacey, jammy, Wall of Sound sammich

Hot hot hot!

Around and Around
Fully rockin' blowout to close a lovely summertime 1st set: Not my favorite song, but this one really kicks.

Space
Phil & Ned: By far the most compact and Space-like. Gargantuan Martian landscapes and insect-shaped UFOs. Sounds like Frippertronics. Heavy stuff.
7
Tennessee Jed
Great version, perfect FOB ECM22P recording.
6
Me and My Uncle
More '74 perfection, Jerry solo is worth a listen. Great FOB recording.
6
Sugaree
Great version, not the longest but it's still great. Phil sounds nice on this FOB recording.
5
Jack Straw
1
Sugar Magnolia
Wildly exuberant both before and after "SSDD" vocals. And Billy is all over this great AUD.
