Sneaky version with great playing by Keith and Jerry. Love what Jerry plays at the end of the jam.

I know they should have played Dark Star in Egypt. But this is a fantastic EP. Dynamic, dramatic, Jerry on fire.

Huge, 18-minute version with great dynamics, deep vocals. Bobby's slide playing and interplay with Jerry are great.

Disturbing, coherent space featuring Phil and Donna vocals, leading beautifully into Terrapin

Great jam. Jerry and Phil lead the way with Jerry finding some amazing spaces.

This is an insane version. Would be much higher if there was a SBD.

Great first solo and then everyone kills it in the jam, especially Bobby, Phil and Jerry
Ship of Fools

Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

When Jerry wasn't paying attention (for whatever reason), it manifested itself in dropped beats. What he does at the end of this tune is not good.

Really interesting what Jerry plays during the verses and Bob's approach to the intro.
