Opens set one, strident and tightrope treading!! After-hours vibe of demolished dystopia, PIcasso moon always gives way to tight soloing and melts

surprised this was omitted-delivery is good, jam is very broad and palatial, seascapes of frozen transpacific bridges. Rings and spires of dankness

China Doll
Feb. 8, 1986
Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

totally chilling, surely this is a major version for the era. Maybe gets lost in the sea of 80's california shows but truly epic stuff, the solo is bone crushing, melodramatically the hammers of the velvet curtains begin sighing in the rain as glamorous beauties fall in puddles of filthy trash soot. Epochal caves of space evoked by Garcia's throat ripped performance. Mind ripping performance that cuts to the core and plunges headfirst back into firecracker pitb.

fusiony and focused. Painterly and stratospheric. after china goes even further into avant marimba wackjob.
Franklin's Tower
Feb. 8, 1986
Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center

full of generous juju, supremely chill mid80's rhodes and heavy phil vibe. Tunneling to icy bliss through the caves, more trains and buses assemble
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

breezy and super on, soaring Jer bear vocally and instrumentally, spritely and layered accompaniment, twinkly lush crescendoes and cresting arcing grandioh jams.
Stella Blue

Richfield Coliseum

spine tingling rendition... Essential.
