Whopping late '77 version of this, the Dead intuitively coasting the waves of the atmosphere's collective imagination.

exquisite, reminded me of the Jai-Alai fronton and other fresh versions . So lip-smackingly brilliantly seasoned, and searing.

trades the wistfulness of other versions of the year for something more in yer face, assertive!!! Dont miss it

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

excellent hard rocking version of this, primo chops and stuff. the band doesn't give a care and it's got a flying breakneck ease, a casual groove about it even though it's bone crunchingly heavy. Makes you sentimental
