Jerry plays Bob's double time rythym in lead at the end. Unique and intense.

The band is absolutely on fire during this night, the first set and on this duo. It amazes me that this amazing show is totally forgotten.

For 80's type versions, this may have the biggest climactic buildup heading to the first verse.

What most folks don't notice is that there is a wild wild Other One Jam for about five minutes in that epic jam after He's Gone, sandwiched right in there between the Caution Jam and the Spanish Theme. It is really fine like the other two themes, no drop off like Dick says in his Deadbase review that they "calm down" No way....

This 20 minute TOO (counting the intro jam which after all, is all TOO lol) goes through many changes and phases, in and out of some Spanishy sections that are very similar to DP 13. Check it out. Amazing improvisational stuff.
