Builds to a nice climax after some interesting lines from Garcia. Whole show is worth a listen.

Ends a great Set II sequence. Listen to the drummers play along with the whistle blower in the audience!

If this had been tracked along with the preceding "Playin,'" everyone would have said "of course." This whole second set is killer.

Exploratory version right out of "Terrapin." Donna sounds great, and Phil leads the jam.

The transition into the "Terrapin Station" material is particularly strong, with powerful playing from Keith.

Nice version and like cgarces said, helps the set grow wonderfully.

I love me a good "Jed." This is the good stuff.

Nice version!

Hell yes! There are some first-time jitters, but they connect to and from this seamlessly. Nice show all around.

Amazed to see such a wide variety of opinions on the archive about this version! That in and of itself makes this worth checking out.
