Jam chart entries
Possum

Normal "Possum" jam abandoned for call and response between Trey and Page. Unique and well worth a listen.

Sneakin' Sally Thru the Alley

First 3.0 version is a monster. The most exploratory version to date. At first funky and snappy, it soon stretches beyond anything like "Sally." From there (about 11:00), it quiets into serene, beautiful space, and then regains momentum, reminiscent of the big Albany "Seven Below" that would follow months later. Must-hear.

Light

After a rough composed section, a largely standard jam suddenly morphs into a highly melodic calypso section, replete with vocal harmonies, before neatly -> to "Taste."

Bathtub Gin

Very good, improvisational "Gin" with multiple sections. The jam breaks away from "Gin" proper at 9:30, proceeding through at least 3 movements before settling with no return to "Gin." > to "Harry Hood."

Versions phish.net's jam charts single out as noteworthy.
