An example of the band in total sync and delivering the goods - Jer's awake and has a plan - wow,

They hit all the change-ups perfectly here and close strong at their neighborhood venue.

Awesome with the band delivering the cool breeze right here. Big smile, excellent find and I laugh because I've become such a soundboard snob! ACK! I devoured AUD's like this back in the days before Archive. This jam ain't no slog for me - hall ambience, crowd vibe'ing and JG's silver toned waterfalls abound here in spades. Great rec, you got more like these? Keep'em comin. .

Early but oh so worthy a listen - hear "Blind" Jerry Garcia blast blues riffs from 3;50 - 5:20....youthful energy Huzzah!

Wow - I would say simply that Jerry sounds "free" here, not tied to the melody but full of ideas from the next room where he is on his own imaginative trip separate from but still attached to the band - ya know? Graverobber hears it to...once heard hard to deny a vote check it and see this one deserves some attention. 2nd listen - beautifully familiar and unfamiliar at the same...makes this one special.
