Early version with a bit of a pep in its step.

Follows a tasty "Playing" to wrap up Set I. There are problems with the sound (AUD patch), which just lets you hear the crowd roar.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
April 12, 1978
Cameron Indoor Stadium

What a rocking version!
Standing On The Moon

Pyramid Arena

I don't know... Garcia's playing is nice, but his vocals are heartbreaking. Why's it working for you, @cgarces?
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
March 30, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

For better or worse, this was my introduction to this sequence, so it retains a fond place in my ears and heart.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 7, 1972
Wembley Empire Pool

IMHO, the "China Cat' is pretty uninspired with little jamming, but the "Rider" does have a cool groove. Why a top 20 spot, MusicSole (not trying to argue, trying to hear it)?

This is an intense version! It's rather fast, and Jerry just goes off on it. It seems like they're been pushing the tempos throughout this entire tour, and the energy level rises accordingly. Don't let the AUD throw you off, this is absolutely worth repeated listens!
