They come charging out of the gate to open a great, maybe underrated Texas tour. Great opener.

If you can get past some severe tape wobble and speed issues, the mix is oddly clear and Jerry's ideas are just off the chain. Completists only.

A short but fascinating star, starts way out, filled with melodicism and beauty, almost yearns for the TOO>MAMU to emerge out of it. Give it a chance.

Jerry's Strat sound is so perfect here. This whole show (and the 6th) highlight the sound of this era perfectly.

They're having a great time here, you can tell. Even the monitor problems are the source of fun.

Jerry shredding Playin', turning it on, up, inside out. Ridiculous light-speed soloing. This is why I listen to the Dead.

He's Gone>Truckin>TOO>Eyes = over 60 minutes of perfect jamming as they got their amazing '73 sound together in this wet dream of a 2nd set .

Check out the 'silence' around 7:30 followed by Phil's amazing sonic boom re-entry to go into the verse. Bang!
