Shredded by Jer and Bob was a little slide happy in 78, but works well.

Jerry has an interesting final jam that he rips at the end of China Cat. He also shreds at the end of Rider , too.

Great version of this rare tune at this epic run. Bruce is a nice addition on this tune.

Almost every song had a little extra over these 2 days.

Milwaukee Performing Arts Center

This is a tremendous version. It sticks with focused theme for the first 13 minutes and then first verse. A chill DS theme continues on and then they start exploring at the 16 minute mark. It then gets out there for the last 8 minutes.
Wharf Rat

Boston Garden

Coming in at over 14 minutes you could all this Morning Rat or Wharf Dew....I would have no issues with this being top 5...I do love the 77 New Mexico version, tho.
