Powerful combo in the middle of one of my favorite second sets. Powerful drums, and listen to Garcia give that diminished chord a workout!

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?
