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

Lyceum 72 and this little encore version right here could be contenders in the ring for the best. This is one of the best shows i have ever' heard! Play this loud.

Only 9 votes, this version is suffering from an outrageous affliction of Bobby Bias. amazing exploratory and cruisin' Billy and Philly interplay, Jerry is positively cheerful, the Godchauxs take us to church at the end, This is fucking fire!!!!!!!!!
