Ending rocker, second song of the encore from an all-around great set II.

In the middle of a powerful set II, and the move to Truckin' comes out sweetly from the 7/8 ending jam

Surprised this isn't on here yet. At times sweet, raging, tender, and spacy.

Encore from another great '77 show. Garcia just smiles in the verse, and the end is heavy. Encore of my favorite come-down set ending.

Playin' In The Band

Mine too. I'd go so far as to say f the comparisons– good is good, and the band wasn't trying to recreate their earlier sound, but create a new one each time. There's some stellar interplay here, and the recording quality is fantastic. Also the ending section and transition into "Drums" is quite lovely.
