Continues one of the great stretches of peak Dead right after Veneta. Great jam, B- sound quality though.

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.

They Love Each Other

Has just a little more bite to it than the '76 versions, though still in the slower mode from the pre-hiatus ones. Flawless is right, as the man said.

Rock solid show opener. Tight from the start. That '77 perfection starts to shine brightly here.

B e s t o n e e v e r. Love how Jerry just doesn't want to stop and grinds out more and more and more.

Around 11:20 Jerry and Keith hit on a new riff that opened up the slow boil onto new terrain. Repetitious? Hardly.... They hit on something that just goes bonkers, turning NFA into hard acid.

Really underrated. This one hits all the high-points, but also shows how much innovation and work they were putting into it. Lots of new effects, echo, and spooky outre weirdness that emphasize how cracked-up the protagonist in the song is. Was it already Dan working the board at this point? Anyone know?
