Deep and weird, capping a set full of loose fun. They get into it and it's all business with a wild trans into UJB, slipknot tease, and a great outro.

Seems like they're just having a great old time jamming together. A loose, fun-filled 1st set capping off a great month in Dead history.

A beautiful monster with intrepid intricacies throughout. Rhythmic Jerry investigations of the theme plus Tom C. on celeste.

Massive and dark with fantastic interplay between everybody on stage. Doesn't quite melt down, but dances next to chaos just perfectly.

Keith's musicality on display too. His accompanyment to Jer during the climax is top form.

This one has all the blazing voices in the head on the verge of madness trippiness that the great Estimateds can bring. Bobby's perfect.

This one pokes you in the eye and demands your attention. NOT backgroud music.

From the first note this version just rocks. Jer's all over it on his first solo, which is quite different from other BEW of the time. Lovely "oooh oooh" harmonies from Bobby and Donna, too.

Not only 22 minutes, but 22 interesting, musically exploring solo-after-solo minutes. My new favourite.
