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.

Terrapin Station

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

The Austin Municipal Auditorium

Honest terminology question: I always thought Space was the post-hiatus, (usually) post-drums bit?

This needs some love, it's a killer version.

Incredible version. Outstanding jam, and things fall apart perfectly into GDTRFB.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Billy is smoking!

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