Brent's playing goes far outside of the rhythmic structures the rest of the band is using to support him, shaking them out of their complacency.

Acceptable slide playing from Bobby. Nice extended organ solo, MIDI sax solo. Whole band playing blues choruses gives first set particular vibe.

Looser and hotter than its more famous brethren from the following night, but Garcia gets buried some in the mix.

Incredible version. Outstanding jam, and things fall apart perfectly into GDTRFB.

This whole show looks like it needs some love. Less jamming on the earlier versions, obviously, but really well-done.
