Overlooked show probably due to the middle AUD quality, but listen here and you get pure Jerry perfection, plus a possible explosion on stage.

Beautifully ensconced in a delicious 2nd set framed by a great Dancin'. On its own this one is pure and lovely. Great Fall '76 show.

Bobby throws a little bit more chaw into this one. It's full of spit and loads of fun. Great first set all around.

A blissful, soaring example of GD ensemble playing. Starts just a bit loose, but by the out chorus it's just amazing.

Super fine yes, but chilled out? I'm not so sure... By '74 standards the whole year is chilled out, but this SB grooves hard and goes deep in for over 10 minutes. One of the best stand alone versions, for sure.

This is an absolute beauty. Good call. This show needs a bit more love, folks.

Can't update the version that I submitted, but I can recommend that you heads get yer asses over to July 13, 1976 and give this one a spin. It has one of the tightest, musically coherent and spotless drum solos in LIG that I know, and the whole thing just lights everything around it on chemical fire.

Play this for anyone who still insists a) that '76 was a chronic drag; or that b) Donna didn't sing beautifully when mic'd and mixed correctly.

Peggy-O doesn't usually strut or swagger, but this one does. There's a bit more oomph to it, even at the laid-back tempo of the era. Seems like Billy and Mickey kick it forward, adding a back-beat shuffle that serves the song nicely.
