Give it a listen. Actually think its better than all the great 1977 versions.

This show is one of the best and this UJB can hang with any. One of my favorite versions.

This one absolutely cooks out of Nobody's fault. Off Road Trips.

I know its listed as Dark Star, but its a true MLBJ. Great country twang to it.

This version is great too. Jerry gives a little more at end.

Whole show deserves more hype with all the crazy bust-outs on borrowed instruments.

This one can really hang with 9/18...mostly cause the La Bamba is the most jammed out of the 4. With that being said after listening to all 4 of these GL>La Bamba>GL, which was fun as hell and I highly recommend doing. 9/18 remains the gold standard since the GL aspect of it is the best of the 4.

Not quite as intense as the bust-out on 9/7/1987. More chill feel to it. The Intro into La Bamba is better and the La Bamba is pretty tight. For me I like 9/7>9/13 just because of the insane energy on 9/7.

Just insane energy...can hang with MSG version on 9/18/87. The crowd just goes nuts with the La Bamba. The La Bamba is a little loose as expected. Transition into La Bamba is not as tight as MSG, but the outro is spot on.
