Nice and slow! It's like Garcia can't play a wrong note tonight! Some nice support from the full band at the climax (esp. Keith).

A bit faster than I usually prefer it, but this is probably one of the last versions with Donna that’s decent, if you prefer her harmonies to Brent’s.

Nice reading with extended solos from Garcia. His voice is a bit rough, but he's singing emotively.

Solid show opener (I can leave Weir's slide parts, though). Jerry's clearly having a good night.

Part of me wishes they tried this hard all the time. Very nice version.

Lindley Meadows, Golden Gate Park

Great, but too short for my tastes. I wish they'd replaced the vocal bit at the end with another solo.

Same here! The energy captured here is stupendous.

I have a SBD if anyone's missing it. Killer stuff.
