Interesting song and show. Not a good recording and not the best show but worth a listen. Honky Tonk Women? From NFA on, it sounds like the Dead.

Epic bust out for sure, but musically, this is way too high.

Wow, strong and fast! One of the best I have heard. This whole show will get more attention now that it is an official release.

Fantastic Eyes!! I lost myself into the drums for a while. It felt like being in a drum circle. Jerry has a couple nice sections as does Brent, but this is really about the drums. Only “complaint” if any is that Phil was low in the mix. Maybe this will be fixed on the new Dave’s Pick!

I have voted for this and Giza and think they are correctly the top two. I heard both today and for me Giza edges this out for best. This one is peppier though, but the other one just has a better groove and I like Keith on it more than Brent here.
