Jack Straw

Civic Center

This is a topnotch version of Jack Straw in which Jerry does it all -- my only complaint would be that Jerry's guitar is mixed a bit too low but he really fully articulates this one. Use Source 2 on Relisten -- it makes a huge difference

I was at this show and at that time was not familiar with the NFA thing and was quite blown away to see it happen spontaneously on New Year's Eve and in fact to start the whole show before the Dead even did NFA!
