Tight version with excellent vocals all the way around.
Easy To Love You

This song showed how much diversity the Dead had in their playing. I really like the losseness of these early versions.

The Spectrum

Wow. This one is amazing. Jerry and Brent had the interplay dialed-in on the Shakedown's to start out in '82. This version is a must hear.

Jerry is dialed into shred mode for this show. He shreds off a fantastic end jam here.
