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.

Playin' In The Band

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.

Wonderful version, and I concur with above on all counts.

Them doing Dylan covers for these last few years pays off tonight.
Turn On Your Love Light

Nassau Coliseum

Odd juxtaposition of Branford making parts of this 1950s rock and roll, and Bobby doing some Pig rap.

Much less the jam. The Drums > Space into the second verse? This is definitely why this is here.

This is seriously good. Should be ranked higher because of the energy in the crowd alone.
