No spine-tingling moments but very good overall with interesting jam.

Music plays Hornsby and band as all are on point and with abundance of energy.

The Palladium

Heading into May '77 on a high note. Extraordinarily locked-in with every member top-shelfing it.

Solid if unspecatcular until last line "Los Angeles, Norfolk..." where Garcia searing vocals then searing guitar! Lesh and crew raging also..

Interesting as sure sounds like violin. Jerry's tone sounds little bit like Robbie Robertson. Phil lots of heady goodness.

Roanoke Civic Center

Emblematic of '87: Well done but without a jam.

Warfield Theater

Someone near end (Bob?) sings If I instead of That path then an undercurrent of laughter, somebody (Phil?) sounds like Cptn Beefheard saying Well then a warbling ooooooohh, and Phil at very end with subtle slapstick bass line.

Yeah that tone by Keith sounds like an homage to Pigpen. Maybe a Wurlitzer or Vox?
Jack Straw
