Surprised to not see this listed - this entire show should be on here.

Surprised this one isn't listed. Nice mellow version with super clean playing by JG. Fantastic show.

I'm not always the biggest Mexicali fan, but Jerry's playing on this is dope. Sounds to me like there are a few Big River teases here. Good stuff.

This one starts off kinda run of the mill, then Jerry lays down a sick solo starting around the 4 minute mark. Great JG show as a whole.

I think I agree with gwelch3 - I can't think of any better versions than this one.

Super solid. This is the perfect length for PITB IMO - not too long, but long enough for some spacey, trippy jamming.

HEAT. Top 5 Althea here. No question.

Yeah this is great. Agree almost completely with everything Beggars Tomb said. While Jerry's voice is hurting a bit, it sounds a bit better than it does on say, Ramble on Rose (same set). JG playing is excellent - also characteristic of the era.
