Tender, soothing, perfect. Brimming with firecracker... jerry rips a mean fret-flyer or two

down to business in the mines of emotion. Tight and incredible. A gem of a intuitive version with lots of rootsy charisma and swingin' euphoria..

Slow and serious. Mickey is masterful as is the overall tone control.Solo could have had more satisfying crescendo, fun lowkey set 1 vibe

gobsmackingly propulsive, stands with the best, most fluid and excitingly spritely stranger jams. Must-hear.

Dead playing this in this year is like the beatles doing "all my loving" in 1964. It's a complete crystallization, and definition, of rock as art. Groovy and dirty mississippi and the ending jam ascends to the highest heavens

got a brilliant white-hot sheet of goosebumps at the opening notes of this. Yep, streaming platforms are the must for this show, no SBD source on archive. (i always try for a matrix) "Jerry's beatiful Fenario" version per a news clipping (http://www.gratefulseconds.com/2016/01/april-30-1977-my-only-dead-show-in-new.html) and it sure is lovely.... Solo is rousing. Verses are focused and elegant. F yeah
