I don't know what it is about this version...it has vocal miscues, but is just epic at an epic run.

A similar version to most from May 77 with some exceptions. Not sure why the next night at same venue is ranked so much higher.

If all the others are on here from May, this one shuldn't be forgotten. However, most are tough to differentiate from May 77.

Can't explain, but the groove is sweet.

I love this show and of course this epic Dew. Jer is great lyrically. The version is gentle when it needs to be. Jer throttles the final solo, but id like to mention that Phil is thick on this version. Huge 8 minute outro that has extreme patience and build up until the monster load is blown. Last thing like it was 77. Three 77 versions and 87 MSG are better and that's it.

Lovin this version. Still pretty focused for being 46 minutes. Probably should be top 3.
