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.

fantastic version - Swirling and bold, hivemind locked in, perfect balance of firey exclamation and tasty introspection.

check the date dude- explosive version that goes the distance, Wolf is howlin', two devils deviling and five golden rings, this one rules!

simply a monster version! grateful dead make rhythm their obedient subject all night, this wily sneaky version no exception. The group is thunderous and exploratory on EVERY song. what a night

love me my feedback nonsense but takes nothing away from this beautiful chill version, Keith and jerry rippling away into the night with archangels watching remorsefully from the rafters as we wave goodbye to winterland.

crux of a perfect show with 'beautiful jam' overtones, thunderous cathartic waves of inertia!
