Good vocals from Bob - excellent jamming from Bruce and Jerry. Isn't this song almost always good?

With this, every version the Dead played is here.

Winterland Arena

They hand the stage over to Keith and he runs with it. He is kicking some serious butt here.
Let It Rock

Jerry hated Nicky Hopkins. Nicky wanted to talk between every song and Jerry wanted him to shut up. Jerry got his way.
Next Time You See Me

Winterland Arena

In the instrumental break, Jerry, Keith and Pig are all into it.
Bertha

Winterland Arena

Even Charlie Miller couldn't fix this one. It sounds like they're playing in a tunnel. Yes - the quality gets better, but it's really lousy during Bertha.
