Jerry redeems himself for the atrocity of a show the night before.
If you listened to the night before this show, 7-13-76, then you will notice that something was not right with old Garcia (I would say he was hammered) and he sounded and played like shit for the whole show.
However with this show, he more than makes up for his awful performance. He sounds strong, plays well and the band is tight or as tight as the GD can be.
I am not really a fan of the fast rendition of "Eyes" that they play here and in 1977 but you can't win them all. "Wharf Rat" sounds sped up too and by that I mean it may be the master tape, with some speed issues. Jerry's voice sounds a little too helium-like. Nice to see "Other One" back in the set as well and the Phil-led segue into "Music" is a nice set closer.
So far for the Orpheum run, out of six shows and this show being number 3, the first night is the best but I can't wait to see what the remaining nights sound like. I will pretend that the second night never happened.

Finally I'm the first
So with the great honor of being the first to review this version, I can say the sound is truly incredible and the show isn't so bad either. Deepest gratitude for all who make is possible for us to listen,
