Nice slower tempo, and that vintage 1970 Jerry tone..

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Capital Centre

Crackling with energy, up tempo.. Jerry belts out the 'headlight' lyric during Rider. The Miller ultra matrix sounds awesome

Happy birthday to Phil, and to this massive Terrapin

Great version (Glassberg aud sounds just exactly perfect), but I still think 5/16/80 reigns supreme..
It's All Over Now Baby Blue
June 20, 1983
Merriweather Post Pavilion

Outstanding rec, reichorn. The Vernon sounds crystal clear and the performance is incredible. The band’s ability to shift dynamics is on full display here..
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 13, 1983
Patrick Gymnasium, U of Vermont

Yes, a few mucked lyrics, but the playing here is out of this world.
