This Bertha cooks. Definately deserves to be here. Jerry forgets the last verse, but the less Jerry sings, the more Jerry plays.

Not as good as the shrine, but has its amazing moments.

As heartfelt as the Europe versions. Worth a listen. Lots of epic stuff on DP 23.

Definately should be in the converation as heady. Smokin' second set opener to this very fine show.

Yeah... right there with 7/17/89 and 10/16/89. Transition into Terrapin is spot on.

There were some great Playin'>UJB combos in 89. The combo this evening is just as good at this magical show.

I came to comment on this version. Lol... killer version. Maybe the finest.

I don't hear CE theme for 1 second. Eugene has the riff played twice. The best theme is from the 12/29/77 tuning before Bertha.
