Notes sbd - the sound quality here a bit hissy. The show has some good renditions and the songs that typically are well played are well played. [2006-11-19] On this repeat listen I thoughtthe Iko Iko out of drums disrupted the flow of the set. There is an obvious bit of aimless noodling when the band is uncertain what follows but Garcia does a left turn into TOO. The energy of this show is high, and I'd put it into the top half for 78.
