Dark Star Orchestra performed this show in Birmingham, AL on 5/3/02, and the end of the first set through the encore was absolutely smoking.

Here I am minding my own business, listening to this show wind down with a nice Wharf Rat > Playing reprise, when all of a sudden they build and build this noise out of nowhere, something totally unexpected and not quite like anything I had ever heard before. Then they perfectly float back down from space and get back to finishing the show. I don't know about you, but those are the moments I live for when listening to the Dead. The whole second set definitely slaps - before I got to the Wharf Rat > Playin' ending, I figured I would highlight the ending solo to FOTM as my personal highlight. As always, great stuff in spring '77.

Not the finest of recordings available for this one, but the Guarneri version does the job. Really nice jam out of wharf into an excellent playing reprise. Jerry has got the tone dialed in. Definitley worth a listen.
