It's easy for a show to get lost in 1988, there were so many. This is as good as it gets for this year. My top 5 of 88 would be 3/27,3/28 Hampton, Rochester 6/30, MSG 9/20 (This show) and probably one of the Maine shows from the Summer (take your pick). PS- Get the other download of the 1st set, and add it to this one for set #2. Both must have's.

I agree with the Louie Louie, some songs the Dead were not meant to do, I Fought the Law was another. Having said that, out of the 100+ Dead shows I've seen, I always thought this was the best Looks Like Rain and Terrapin I ever saw the GD do. The Terrapin may have been surpassed by the Terrapin Suite I saw Furthur do at the Vibes last summer.

Never saw 'em in the Apple, but with a long series of shows at the Garden like this, you know they loved playing there. Always a treat when they trotted out the old warhorses like The CumberLand Blues and Truckin', and when the everybody in the house is singin' "what a long, strange a trip it's been," with the men on stage committing to it 100%, I dare you to keep a smile from stretching across your face. During the solo in Bertha, things get a tad sloppy, but who gives a s***?
