Hard rock outro makes this one jaw-clenchingly good. Jamming like that in 7/4 is just awesome.

Loose in places, but full of joy.

Hard swaggering version from a sweet, if not often overlooked show capping off one of the great months in Dead history.

Jerry channels George Harrison like nobody's business. The solo at 2:45 gently weeps, guys. Check it out.

Starts really loose, but gets going.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Crystal clear and jam-a-licious. A sparkling beauty.

Compton Terrace Amphitheatre

Confirms why I'm not so into the '80s.

Hollywood Palladium

"Mellowish" but not mellow like the sleeeeeeeepy '76s. It still has some of the psychedelic bite from the primal years. Love love love it.

Dane County Coliseum

I'd vote for this one twice on the MLB alone. Zo zweet.
