Jerry using octave and delay pedals creating wonderfully glitchy textures, Phil and Brent playing nice support.

LLR around '89 can sometimes be a rushed, clunky mess. This is one of the exceptions- well-played, great solo. Out of a nice Foolish Heart.

Keith doing very pretty piano fills here (Boston 77 is one of his last great peaks). Band can do no wrong here.

A live Dead masterpiece, a rare big jam that genuinely doesn't waste a second. The prototype for '77.

Too many great versions of this tune in Spring '77 to call this best... but still... maybe sorta kinda still the best?

I enjoy the 73-74 arrangement as much as anybody, but I can see why the band decided to bring this tune back not in 1976, for in 1980 about these acoustic arrangements. The tenderness of the song and Robert's lyrics were never better captures than the Reckoning shows.
