Fast and energetic with some really inspired moments, despite harsh keys sound.

Great vocals from all and the solos are really sweet. Lesh is all over this and the reggae ending is nicely handled. Whole gig's a good 'un.

Paramount Theatre

Encore with crazy drumming, Weir's guitar nice and high in the mix, and Garcia relentless. Vocals are pretty good too.

Wembley Arena

I was an irresponsible 22 year old at the time and I've always regretted not getting a ticket in time. Sigh...

I think you might be right, Phigment. Lovely feel all the way through.

Super fast, tight and rockin'.
West L.A. Fadeaway
May 6, 1984
Silva Hall

Stark and slinky but colourful too. Contains presumably unintended spoonerism. One of my favourites.
Playin' In The Band
April 27, 1984
Providence Civic Center

Tight and concise with a sense of purpose. Ta for the heads up.
