Each night of this run has a stellar encore. I prefer 04-29's UJB, but this one's still very solid.

Here Comes Sunshine
Dec. 6, 1973
Public Hall

Wonderful version, and I concur with above on all counts.
Knockin' On Heaven's Door

Nassau Coliseum

Them doing Dylan covers for these last few years pays off tonight.
Turn On Your Love Light
March 29, 1990
Nassau Coliseum
