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.

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.
