Lots of submissions from this show. 2 well-played sets - this is my favorite Stagger Lee, not sure exactly why it just has IT.

The freakin harmonies on this one I miss that trio singing Euro 72 style. Back when Phil could sing that high

This one gets up here for Brent's creativity during the Jam. UJB sandwich 2nd set is sweet.

The outro jam into drums is great orchestra. Real well-played version with great Brent vocs.

B O M B s! That may sound of character but I'm talking about the ones we all love. Triumphant version with lots of Phil.

The morning dew that keeps on giving and giving. Everyone is feeling it.

The only way to close one of the greatest shows ever, is with this Phil-bomb-laden version of Dew.

The Spectrum

The acid jazzgrass is amazing. Veneta or Spectrum it's tough to pick one. If you're in the mood for a teeth grinder you go with Veneta if you want a psychedelic bluegrass jam band to take you away then it's 9/21. My choice is this one overall.
