Good groove, and you have to love the crowd singing along and driving Jerry to give it all with his vocals

Comes from a great Space (and don't mind the AUD patch).

Great ending vocal jam with "Nobody's Fault but Mine" tease.

Date's wrong. Usually not a fan of this tune, but the jam blows up mid-song.
St. Stephen

Worth a listen from the jamming from "Space" into "Stephen," and I find it interesting how the band move through those conceptual spaces in the transition. You can almost here when the first jam gives way to a "Stephen" jam.

I loved Brent's organ and synth colors at the start of this. The vocal jam is alright, and Garcia plays a short but tight lead. This is the opener of what I believe was Trey Anastasio's first GD concert.

(He makes up for it in the ending vocal jam, btw).

This is perfect and everything I love about 80s Dead. I love Jerry with an organ player!
