Talk about a sleeper...along with the "PITB" before it, this is probably the last time the Grateful Dead really went the distance in terms of jamming.

Searing work from Brent in a typically strong 1989 version. Surprised this was represented from a legendary show.

Creepy crawly version with lots of different themes and moods just like all good Spaces.

Not exceptionally long but still a very good version. Phil's great here.

Deal
May 8, 1977
Barton Hall - Cornell University

I've been listening to Barton through the Jerry Moore audience source, and it's like hearing it for the first time. With the crowd energy more present, you get a new appreciation to what the band was churning out that night. Great "Deal."

This show needs serious reappraisal; this a Top 3 show of 1991. Magnificent selection of songs from end to end and everyone of them rips. The "Eyes -> Foolish" is among the best of the Bruce era and the whole post-Drums is a monster.

Often a skipper for me but coming out of "Eyes" it has some real juice to it.

The jam at the end is incredible.
