Jerry's weathered voice and Brent's organ add depth and texture to this excellent version.

Brent works so perfectly on this song.

I'm gonna have to agree with an earlier post that the "Terrapin" itself is not that great, that Jerry's vocals are off and the song never catches fire. But the jam...this is as good as anything they've ever pulled off. It's dangerous, mysterious, rocking and completely volcanic.

It says a lot when a song so closely associated with the Dead's psychedelic period (1969-70) has a version from almost 10 years later ahead of it, but this one deserves it. A hard charging, creative and just plain awesome "St. Stephen."

An outstanding late "Terrapin." I think one thing people don't talk up enough at this show is Jerry's vocals. His 'old man' tone aside, his singing is very strong throughout. Obviously, the belting on "So Many Roads" and "Stella Blue" is super powerful, but this "Terrapin" is really something special thanks to Jerry's delivery. It's a song that was often riddled with miscues and forgotten lyrics post-Brent, but this one has Jerry on target and his phrasing is super creative and clever during "Lady with a Fan." Fantastic playing throughout. Vince is excellent here.

This "Eyes" goes into a dark place towards the end that I never heard in other versions. Creative, spooky stuff that flows well into "Drums."
