No Garcia Vocals, but he shreds the ending, one of the best late 70's versions.

Great 90's version for sure, the one with the most votes, yes, but the BEST ever hardly.

Great version, the bad cut in the SBD is hard to overlook, but give it a listen. Spring ’78 has some of the most impassioned singing by Garcia ever.

Very strong vocals by Weir, the middle jam is very long and the concluding vocals are exceptional, with Weir growling “My Lightning Too”, great version.

Great Brown Eyen Women, vocals are sung with gusto and a great guitar run after “Drink down a bottle and you’re ready to kill” line. More songs from RPI should be on the list, it a GREAT show.
