Un-friggin-believable work from Garcia here, no doubt...that cannot be overstated...Keith and Donna shine here as well...The band is locked in

Damn straight. Figured this would be posted, but didn't expect it to be this highly ranked...it should be though...This could be the best Fire of all time...Let it burn, Let it burn

Didn't mean to seem upset...I have no bad things at all to say about this site, just for the record. Steve has corrected my mistakes before, that is why...anyway, Hakuna Matata!

A great show, one I always come back to. This version swings and grooves and oozes refined psychedelia.
