Hits a moment of near complete silence. A beautiful segue from eyes into china doll.

Really fun latter day version. I believe it is the second to last played. The boys get into it, and reassure the crowd they arent quite done yet.

Samson and Delilah

Oakland Coliseum Arena

Rippin' version. Some dialed in rage from Jerry coming with some ferocious solos.

Bobby gets into it, in great fashion. A quick charge through a Dylan Cover. Bursting energy throughout

The Forum

Absolutely nuts version. Twice as fast as usual, I would stack this up with cornell.

Second above comments-- the transition is quite something.. Vocals are heartfelt and definitive, Stranger>1/2>Weight is a pleasant surprise to open a very solid 1st set.

Samson and Delilah

Uni Dome, U of Northern Iowa

DP 18 is crackling with an abundance of energy that places it in the upper echelon of live dead releases. This Samson is torn to absolute shreds, Garcia is a man possessed, if I had to guess the stage was on fire following this version.
