Blazing version, but I nominated it primarily for its placement within the context of the tasty Playin'->Half-Step->Big River->Playin' sandwich.

Jerry's pipes never sounded sweeter, and Keith's barrel-house piano chops complements perfectly!

The previous night's version was tasty, but this one is delicious. The nomination for this one is long overdue. The whole show is quintessential '76

Jerry’s solo takes the cake.

Olympiahalle

I share the same sentiments stated above. During the coda, Phil stages a near total takeover. A great Eyes from a great era.

Um, a glaring oversight on us Deadheads. This should be ranked way higher....
