Mountain Jam

Grand Prix Racecourse

Not sure what constitutes a "Mountain Jam" but this is a jam in the mountain and it's fantastic stuff. Garcia soars w/ that '73 tone, Lesh is on fire.

Real nice groove to it throughout. Garcia comes in blazing with that stanky early 80s tone at start of the short jam. Fine one.

Fun cap off to a real good Red Rocks show. Phil sounded so good in the mix this entire show.

Decent one up until the jam, and Garcia comes in guns a blazing! The jam is awesome! Everyone sounds great.

'87 is the fucking shit. Love this one. Sounds great. And the jam is sick.

The solo is a bit unreal in this one. It's extremely creative and gut-wrenching stuff from Garcia. My issue with it is that the rest of the band doesn't reflect that. They all stomp over that bonkers solo in a way that drowns some of the magic.

Happy Cornell Day everyone. This one really is a blazing performance out the gate. Keith FTW.

This one is great. Groovy and takes its time chugging along. They were in a real specifically mellow but focused mood this night.
