Fastest version I’ve ever heard. Bobby: “what Motor City?” quip mid-song.

Odd placement as second song in second set, but benefits from solid Garcia thoughout.

Great mix of country-rock and disco Dead. Jerry’s accompaniment helps make this one. > into a good “Big River” featuring Keith especially.

Fantastic version, one of the greatest.

Agreed. Worth a listen, gets quite spacey (with Brent channeling some 70s electric jazz for good measure).

Cuca, you'll love the ripping jam into TOO. I've never heard anything like it.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Philadelphia Civic Center

This is a mighty fine version! I love your descriptions. As someone who just moved out of the great state of Maine, there's nothing like turning something great up, sitting out on the porch with something tasty to consume, and living the dream.

Fillmore East

I think they actually rather mangle the transition (they're in different tempos for godssakes) but that's part of the magic for me.
