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

man, is there a show on this tour they weren't dosed for? check out bobby's pupils and that zonked out opening banter. Pretty solid version of Bertha with pigpen killing it on the hammond b3. https://vimeo.com/101359380

Killing version of this, likely one of the best ever. Billy is just too cool in this. i love how lesh lights up the bridge section with primordial bass levels of face stealing grind
He's Gone

Baltimore Civic Center

can't believe this only has 6 votes. Gorgeous version of He's Gone - Keith's playing is as good as rock piano gets - that goes into a face-stealing, truly epic 40 minute version of Other one>Drums>Other one.
