This one floats. Great sound for the early Jack Straw, I dig it.

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
