Recording SHNID 2201
Media SHN   3 discs
Notes Rnd&Rnd real perky, played in a classic rock n'roll style. Garcia's singing exudes lots of enthusiasm. Too bad it cuts at 3:40. PITB _ haven't heard a 72 version that I didn't like. This show is the last Cryptical for a decade. Intro to Cryptical has flubbed notes and Garcia sounds tentative and this is a poor version of the song. TOO is the meat of set 3 played in a jazzy, jammy PITB 72 style. I wouldn't say this is a big favorite for me mainly because it sounds too similar to the jams on PITB. GDTRFB has left channel lost every few seconds. NFA has a nice bounce to it with good Garcia licks.
