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

Staggering. The dead have been playing for over 3 hours, including a 32-min DS just now, and they still want to go ham on playing in the band. A generous night and lightning-hot, jazzy 73 gig for all to behold!!!!!!

DS->Eyes->PITB, three of rock music's dopest pleasures all in one place tonight in Springfield Mass, site of the invention of basketball. Unreleased, I would have been absolutely losing my mind at hearing this brilliant new Dead tune. but anyway, the jamming on this version is definitely turned on, and tuned in. A notable aspect is the loose modal jamming on the outro material with fluid, dexterous 5/8 riffs echoing throughout this version, going back and forth the dark n' light!!!
