p.s. I understand the DVD of this was severley hacked up with interviews and the like; so find the VHS or don't bother.
Looks like this is likely from the Live at Great Woods show 9/6/91 (now the Comcast Center). I was there for the princely sum of $21. The only time I've seem them; a great line-up to say the least.

I'm still amazed at the fire Dickey and Warren played with for the first years after Warren was in the band.
And Woody was driving the bus with delicious lead bass!
The Betts/haynes lineup was somethng else. My favourite short of the original band
I agree, I do like Trucks playing tho...
Trucks is fantastic. An outstanding musician to be sure. But I must admit that in the current lineup I miss the sound of Betts. It's not about talent of facility which Haynes and Trucks have plenty of but I miss Bett's voice on the instrument when they play the classic songs.
Much the same way that it always sound a bit "off" to hear one of Roger Waters' great sidemen play Gilmours parts. The talent is there but the voice is wrong.
This for me is the definitive PG tone.
