Jerry ate a frog before the show but his lines this night are clear, sublime and FUNKY at the 7.50 mark.

A nice surprise for '85. Jer's vox is shot but the playing is sweetness.

This has some action to it with DJ adding nice backup. Jer throws out some great trills and they catch the groove.

Hey Greenie - shaggy is right - but endearing too. Check 4/14/84 it's spikey instead of shaggy and almost goes off the rails but doesn't - I love it.

Correction on the date of a previous post (s) - 12/17 vs 12/23 - after a very unscientific study I swapped'em over to the 17th date. Highly urge anyone with a taste for '70 to check out this stellar short set of a crystal recording. I love this crunchy year.

If this were only heard - it would surely shoot up to top 10 status - outstanding with Jerry vocal reverb bonus.

Ridiculousness - Hear Jer finagle the Mtn jam in here - f'n unreal.

Must be heard - totally Dark Star-esque per the above comment without the speed of other versions but totally sweet bends and phrasing. A real treat.
