A true Grateful Dead artifact. This audience recording is second-to-none for the early years, and the atmosphere it creates is divine.

The '76 Cassidys are laid back for sure, but this one and the entire show lope like no other, and in the best possible way. Epic PeggyO, Mission, Jed, epic top-to-bottom

Your analysis may have merit...all I can say is that I love listening to this version...maybe it's the moodiness, or the Phil-heaviness, but whatever it is, it is awesome...there may be better versions, but this one is pretty great to my ears
