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.

One of only seven post hiatus shows to feature both Big Railroad and Cumberland and perhaps one of two with both in the same set.
