Jerry's voice was still weak from laryngitis, but his guitar made up for it, ripping and roaring!

Soaring, crisp, wild and lilting. Kind of thought I'd already commented on this one. Murray is on fire. Some nice Matrix stuff out there. Check out the whole show!!!

Excellent Main Ten!!! And the jams before and after (called Dark Star Jam by some.....) make it pretty darn sacred.
