Fiery, galloping build up. Maybe this was overshadowed by the 9/19 version, but this one rips.

Jerry flubs the cheap hotel, but it's OK. His guitar makes up for it. Check out last couple minutes. Builds beautifully. Just a notch below 9/19.

Scorching. Just flipping through the 1990 Garden run. Surprised this ain't here already. Bruce's 1st official night as a member of the band.

Weird one for sure. Starts as Spanish Jam, Bobby has a great notion, throws in O1 lyrics. Always good pair. Into Stellar Stella Blue-GDTRFB-Around...

Yeah, the reprise is nuts, but so is this whole entire show.
Werewolves of London

Thompson Arena - Dartmouth College

One and only time in New Hampshire (pretty sure...). With a great Dire Wolf earlier in the evening and this encore, were there rumors of something prowling in the woods of Hanover this Friday night....?

Gorgeous. Out of wild NFA, into wild Around, into wild and groovy Werewolves encore. Wild.

Yes! Classic Americana in the Boogie Down Bronx! Like everything at this show, one of the best versions of 1971.

Great one too, as has been said, right out of a really, really great China-Rider. Really loving this show....!
