Up tempo and forceful jamming. A strong version.

Such a sweet rare treat.

Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Faster than any other I know, and rip-roaringly good. Sound quality is B though (FM to mic to cassette).

Despite sound quality questions, this is a barn burner. Jerry on 'roids with muscular jamming over an inspired Billy K. Murky but hot.

San Antonio Civic Auditorium

Solid and strong. Keith's sound is way high in the mix, but to nice effect. Unfortunately jerry is barely audible. Could use a fix.

Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

Field House - Seneca College

May just be the best ever.

Oh yeah, this one sizzles. The Lightning portion is a bit short, but the great tightness and exhuberence to the Supplication makes up for it.

Hill Auditorium

December '71 is one of the most consistently perfect months in Dead history. This tour has so many highlights its an embarrassment of riches, and has some of the best vocals ever.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Shows the genius of the group. The segue follows several other examples of surprising song melding throughout the second set. What fun. Check out the TOO>MAMUJam>TOO>Sittin' On Top Of The World>TOO a few minutes prior. Makes me think they were putting Keith to the test, saying 'alright freshman, how about we play every single thing we know all at once and make it sound amazing'...!

Freshness and power to the early versions. Jer's voice is strong and this one's a beaut.
