Great Jam in this spectacular DS. The DS maybe a touch underrated.

Perfect version! Beautiful solo at end. Goes into a smokin' Sugar Mag, but they almost have to abort the reprise.

Short but intense and powerful. If you like early 90's Dead....this show is a classic and must listen. Great one for this era.

Valid points. I am not sure they ever nailed the lyrics for UJB..LOL. Instrumentally, I love this one. The flow of the whole pre-drums is something special...even better than 10/9.

Is 8/24/68 the definitive? Yes....But this merits an upvote.

This is probably more reminiscent of the later E72 Truckin's that get serious hype, such as 5/26/72. Funny how they stretched this before E72 and then it took awhile on the tour to get it back at 18 mins. The last 6 minute jazzy jam is initiated by Phil. Its a hot Truckin' to open and then has some serious goodness to close it out. Phil tries to get the O1 going but it leads into Drums before they all get on board for an epic O1>MAMU>O1. With that being said, this one easily could be top 5!

I am going to pour more sugar on this one...It has the perfect amount of Rap and Jamming at 17 mins.
