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.

Holy shit this thing is WAY too low indeed. This is without question top 5. I seriously think this might be my new favorite. This and 3.14.81 could be 1a and 1b.

JG rocks this. Fozzy Bear voice and all :) Speaking of that, I notice that his voice gets this Fozzy Bearish quality around Summer '84, then lasts through '86. '85 is peak Fozzy. Around Fall '84 is when he started gaining noticeable weight too, so I think there's a correlation. Great show though.
