I am one in the minority that wished it stayed in the lineup. I have always considered 10/25 and 10/28 - 1 and 2.

The bridge to Rider is beautiful in any era. The band was feeling it in Alpine.

One of my favorite shows ever. Ned Lagin performs and adds some weirdness which may have helped to send the Dead into the nether regions and beyond here.
