Surprised this one is not listed, a great year for Half-Step, this one is worth a listen, a good version.

The most agressive Garcia vocals, matched by his playing, top 10 easy, don't know why it wasn't on the list

Another great version from the fall of ’79. Phil is driving this train, powerful chords throughout, nice Weir solo and then Jerry kills it. “The Song that Women sung…” Road Trips No.1 Vol 1 Full Show

Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

“Coralsandbelow” and “Maximillian” If you guys like this Deal, (which I also do as well), check out the UVM version from 5/6/78, 3 shows before this one. The Donna warning is also appropriate.

Torin, never stop now is soo right, this version is “Balls Out Rock and Roll”, the peak will leave you breathless, very, very aggressive, surprised they didn’t blow a few speakers.
