Fastest version I’ve ever heard. Bobby: “what Motor City?” quip mid-song.

Odd placement as second song in second set, but benefits from solid Garcia thoughout.

Great mix of country-rock and disco Dead. Jerry’s accompaniment helps make this one. > into a good “Big River” featuring Keith especially.

Thanks all– I'll pose the same question to you that Grendel answered. Give me something to stretch my listening habits, pitch a show for me to check out!

Some nice contributions from Bruce on accordion here.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

That was bugging me, I had to figure out. At the start of "Fire," Lesh is playing the "wrong notes" (replacing the B and A that we expect with G# and F#, creating tension by implying that the chords the rest of the band is playing are minor). Sick stuff, no wonder folks went running. Was this typical for this tour/year?
