- ★★★★★ · One of the greatest shows ever · thamaddnote · 2004
Though it has an interesting set list, the first set of this show is not above par. Aside from noteworthy some Garcia work on Peggy-O, and an enjoyable Lazy Lightning and Supplication, the first set is not great. At some poins, such as the wonky version of Dupree's Diamond Blues, the set is even below standard. However, all this changes at the start of the second set. From help on the way all the way to Brokedwoan palace, this set is some of the finest music the Dead have ever played.

- ★★★★★ · Best of 1983!! · Purple Gel · 2007
This Rocks run was, as was often the case, one of the best, if not the best, of the year, and this show is the creme de la creme. The first set is solid with a great Peggy-O, awesome Bird Song and as previously mentioned a stellar Lazy Lightning>Supplication. The second set is where this show really shines! the Slipknot>Franklin's is just exquisite with Jerry riffing like only he could and the Slipknot is just exquisite.
- ★★★★★ · Choice '83 Performance · Terrapin31590 · 2005
This review is a Set II only review. H>S>F as others have noted really cooks. All three songs are performed at a high level, JG hits all his notes and the Franklin's just takes off about 1/2 way through and jams hypnotically with Jerry blistering some sick leads as the tune reaches its crescendo. Playin is true PRIMAL dead, with a 70s length and 80s feel, long jams punctuated by Phil's thumping bass, Brent's ivories and some interesting Weir lines that add tremendously to the tune.
