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.

Exploratory version right out of "Terrapin." Donna sounds great, and Phil leads the jam.

The transition into the "Terrapin Station" material is particularly strong, with powerful playing from Keith.

Total zig in the setlist.

It's not just the great long never-ending jam, it's also the exceptional vocal outro before the jam.

This is killer stuff. Dark edged.

One of the three best versions of this song. Criminally underrated.

The Austin Municipal Auditorium

A desert vision amidst the Star's space.
