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

The grateful dead are late for their appointment and doing 90 down the bertha highway. This concert has some of their best post-coma music, and I believe best in general, it's hard to beat the last 2 Brent years in my opinion.

Famous show OTD in 90. That whole month was insane for them and comparable to April 72, December 73, or May 77. Jerry takes off on this speedy and clown-car tight Jack.
