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.

Terrapin Station

Uptown Theater

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

Morning Dew

I've been conditioned to hear that transition out of Eyes into China Doll (and for a second it sounded like they weren't sure which one they were going to hit). It's a yowza of a Dew!
Eyes Of The World

They got the groove right on.
Me and Bobby McGee

Baltimore Civic Center

This is one of those instances where Bobby's cowboy song fits just right into what's going on in the set, and Garcia's particularly sensitive behind him.
Wharf Rat

Baltimore Civic Center

When they get the tempo of Wharf Rat just right, it's eerie how similar it sounds to Dark Star.

Killer stuff. The transition and jam on the WRS material are all-time.
