Great second set version after a 45 minute jam and emotive China Doll.

Major screw-up of the lyrics here, Pig tries to make up for it and then Jerry just steals the show. I can dig.

Great transition out of Mama Tried! Real cool little western pair in the middle of a fantastic first set

This Dark Star or Dancin? Hard to tell here. A+ version
Eyes Of The World

Winterland Arena

A FIVE MINUTE pre-lyric intro. Phenomenal. Jerry playing out of this world
And We Bid You Goodnight
Dec. 31, 1976
Cow Palace

I read in Deadbase the only rehearsing the band did after their last show (10/15) was a 15 minute soundcheck but you would not guess that by this UJB > Goodnight encore. Sounds so damn good by everyone, albeit slightly cut off on the official release
Uncle John's Band
Dec. 31, 1976
Cow Palace

First one since 10/19/74 and it rocks as a second encore! Great vocals and some real nice jamming towards the end / into Bid You Goodnight
