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.

One of my favorite outro jams. Jerry, distortion and Billy's speed drumming.

This bustout version doesn't get enough love. Understood it's not 72 jammy but the ending is the heaviest of Dead. Hey Cuse, I have always wanted to tab Phil's ending jam. It would sure take awhile.

Jerry digs into this final solo. Energy show finished off right!

Yes indeed. This Stephen>NotFade>Stephen is just exactly perfect. The NotFade is a powerful piece of music, for sure.
