Fantastic jam. Everyone looks alive. Bobby and Brent drive it.

Recreation Hall - Penn State University

One of the best I've ever heard. Jerry is on fire, Bobby sings great, and drummers are right there.

Jerry has to be feeling it for this tune to work and he's on fire here

Sneaky, searching solo is worth a listen.

I recommend this mix for Phil: https://archive.org/details/gd79-04-22.sbd.bennett.12001.sbeok.shnf/gd79-04-22d3t04.shn

Phil and Jerry are really feeling it on Brent's first tune. You know it's going to be alright when you hear the first note Phil plays.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Leave it to the Dead to play one of the best ever versions of a tune after not playing it for years and before playing it about 10,000 more times.

This coda made me lose control of the car. And I wasn't even driving. Needs votes.
The Other One
Feb. 3, 1979
Market Square Arena

Best Other One of this era. Phil is out of his mind. Listen to him in the intro.
