One of those note-for-note perfect versions that leave you staggered and smiling. Just beautiful.

Not a song I usually get so swept up by, but on this one Jer's vocals are just perfect, capturing the sweetness and sorrow of the lyrics. A beaut.

High-powered and tight. This show has nothing but complaints about the mix on the archive. Listen to the Ashley transfer, and see what you've missed.

Such sweet harmony, such sweet sentiment - turning on a dime after the white-hot Dew. Shows the beautiful country chops Donna at her best brought.

Jam starts at around 05:45, never fully forms. Am I crazy? This sounds like NFBM and it continues about 3min into TOO. Very very cool stuff here.

Beautiful harmonies. Some of the New Riders were there for it.

Good call: I'm much more of a '60s and '70s Head, but this show just bursts out. I always loved this song when I got to hear it in concert, so I'm happy to see it up here - on the same day that I'm listening to this concert for the first time in years. Reminds me why I loved the Dead during Brent's time, too.

Top choice grade A. Tight and right. I keep coming back when I need my '77 fix. May also be the single most insane show opener ever.

Help us C. Miller! This show deserves a cleanup! Oops (later the same day), I mean THANK YOU, Charlie Miller. Your cleanup is much appreciated. Skip the other version heads.
