Jerry's solo during this is one of the highlights of his career. An incredibly brilliant deal.

Pure shredding by Jerry. This is one of the fastest eyes I have ever heard. This is one coked out eyes, blazing, killer version.

Killer conclusion to this 1st set

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
Feb. 5, 1978
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.
