2nd one ever, and doesn't flow perfectly yet. They're working out the lovely 3-part harmonies and it's just fantastic transitional Dead.

Sweetness in the '70 acoustic key. Confusing setlist/archive on this show, but worth a listen.

In spite of a bit of tape wobble, this is an otherwise pristine version, with everyone keyed up right. A tight solo and a fun time.

Fast acoustic pickin' with alternative lyrics. Sounds almost like a 12-string in places. Is that possible?

All the power and, let's admit it AMBIVALENCE by our boys is on here. They flub the lyrics but bigbang the jam. We are the answer to the answer, man.

This one made me go, "oh damn, whoa". Blazingly brilliantly good.

They're just so in love with this song at this point and it shines through.

Nice that the archive version has the whole WRS and Let it Grow as one track. The LIG has a cool little WRS tag at the very end.

Trans out of a killer Truckin'>NFBM Jam is just a beautiful uptempo mandelbrot set of fretboard filigree.
