Flawless. It just leaves me breathless how good this show is.

Sparkles. Has an electric country sound that just crackles with energy. Perfect execution.

An ultimate performance. Jerry's voice is in perfect shape. Powerful, chilling version that will make your hair stand on end. Shamefully overlooked.

Powerful tight playing. C.Miller cleanup, boys playing the 1st set like their lives depended on it. Peak Dead.

Note for note precise, beautiful playing. The outro is lovely and doesn't descend into madness. Donna gives it a nice gospel touch.

Deserves more love. Let It Grow just blasts off and leaves your jaw dropped. Hot hot stuff.

48 minute jam starts with Phil and Ned at their tweekiest. You've been warned, if that isn't your bag. (Not me, though, I dig that electric weirdness - you couldn't squeeze my pupils down to normal size even if you tried....)

Drops you through the wormhole right quick, this one. Not a beginner's 'Playin' by any stretch. (Don't try to convince a Dead skeptic with this big beast, oh no.) Goes in and through and out of many dark places, but the whole show is full of very outré jams and this really sets the tone for a big big show.

There's a whole lotta music in here. Listened to it over and over, still finding new things in there. Outstanding, driven, tight and right.
