Jer's voice is toast so he BURNS DOWN the lead on this instead! SMOKE!

It's like finding a $20.00 you hid from yourself ... Jer peels off some oh so sweet riffs love his tone on this. DG in check too.

This is one of those softly lilting ones and then they hit over the head with a HAMMER on the outro - Donna in tune on this one.

Jack Straw

Rips hard and has a raunchy edge with DJ's excellent backup work. There a gazillion Jack Straws but this deserves a listen.

Jerry comes out and pounds the crowd to dust - sheesh.

That 10/29/77 rings a bell - I know I've heard it but can't recall it specifically - gonna go check it on your recommend Grendel. If it's anything like this one I am sure I will dig it.

Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

'84 is underappreciated in my book too and this one is so damn darkly atmospheric and just a cool journey - Weir's work is especially interesting to me here all the way to the end. While not '84 check out 4/6/82 for a quick but FIERCE O1. that does not overstay it's welcome but gets to the point for the bash.
