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

Manor Downs

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.

Just listening for the first time now... What a ride!

Capitol Theater

Powerful version! [edit:] I think the first half of the DS gets super trippy, I like it. I dig the whole sequence, but the jam, of course.

Great version, with something for everyone.

The solo is one of my favorite Jerry moments from a month full of them. He's confident enough to attempt and land a solo that gets pretty far out at times.
