I yearn for a better recording of this show.

Another unsurprisingly great '78 Prophet. Can't get enough of these EP outros, just so.... Jerry

Uptempo with liquid gold Jerry leads. Only EP exists on SBD from this 2nd set-- fight through the muffled AUD and hear the Garcia flamethrower.

Fantastic '78 EP. This song was untouchable in '78 and Jerry doesn't let up in the outro

Amazing solo, just when you think Jerry's done he explodes with some lightning fast hyperpicking

Doesn't get much better than this. This one's got peaks and valleys as opposed to a lot of other NFAs that are just all peak. Listen to Jerry strum; it's severely understated how difficult it is to strum full chords like that cleanly on guitar.

Hard to argue with this one.

Keith's keys are just booming; love the ascending/descending tension-building licks he plays. If I had to describe this with one word I'd call it "bombastic." Very loud, a lot of low end with Jerry adding that Wolf sparkle on top. Jerry's close encounters jam should be broadcast on loop 24/7 from every satellite in space. Might attract some visitors.
