    People are really jockin' the "U.S. Blues" in this show, but I was reviewing it solely for the "New Minglewood Blues," which is BY FAR the absolute best version of this song out there, even better than the 9.16.78 version from the Pyramids. I judge a good Grateful Dead song partly by the 'flashback effect,' or how quickly it evokes memories of past shows.

  • ★★★★★ · A highlight of the year · L. Rosley · 2006

    I agree that this is one of the best shows of 1978. The indication of a good show is if the first set is good. In this show, it is. The band is engaged, Jerry turns some nice licks on guitar, everyone's vocals are good, and there are some great extended jams. (There are a lot of good first sets in the '72-'77, with declining frequency after that.) First-set highlights include Peggy-o, Row Jimmy (which has a different take on rhythm midway), and Loser. Lazy Lightning has a very tight jam.
