Hits a great groove early on, with some cool interplay before the first verse.

If you like some of Jerry's guitar effects from early versions of "Dark Star," give this a listen! Short but sweet.

Gimme Some Lovin'

Cool transition from "Space," and the organ in the intro is hot. Leads into a smoking "Watchtower"

Hide your kids from this super heady space, lest you give them nightmares.

Nice call Moberg! Sweet > from the “Dancin’” fade out. Nice first solo. Drums kick up a notch before the final the end. Crowd loves it. Absolutely worth a listen.

Vocals are good (Donna’s having an on night). Crowd twigs during “in NYC” line. Shorter but very coherent solo from Garcia. Fade out at end performed rather well.

Also, "Estimated" followed by "Jed" is too perverse to pass up.

Moore's AUD is a bit boomy on the low end (I agreed with others on the LMA who thought the band sounded too far away on the other source). I dealt with it (it's not that bad), but if it bugs you, throw it into your favorite editing program. Don't let it deter you from hearing this!
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

It ain't my vote! I definitely think this is the better of the two.
