Strong St. Stephen into Casey to close the show with force..."What would be the answer to the answer man? Drivin that train"

This song and the band were both in such great and wonderful place at the time, and it really shows here

Good Lovin'->Caution->WhoDoYouLove->Caution->Good Lovin, all after an epic DS->Sugar Mag. Amazing that reaching such heights was typical in this era

Wow. Mind-blowing. Brent seems to take 'Superstition' to a new level and Jerry and Phil are totally flyin' and rippin' and bombin' while the drummers stomp. Hardly noticed Weir but I'm sure he was great. WOW

So this one is pretty great, but I must disagree w/ best-ever...My fave is 7.15.84. Just a personal preference, but compare them and tell me yo disagree

Stunningly gorgeous. A lot of intense effort and focus and pure joy goes into this performance, and seemingly every performance of Europe '72.

Time for self-promotion...Sugar Mag->U.S. Blues->Sunshine Daydream...are you kidding me?!? Does it get any better?
