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.

Phil action!!!! Perfect one minus a couple awkward flubs from the drums.

Swirling rager of a late Other One. The first 5 minutes are super hot.

Not only the best A&R IMO, but some of the best, brightest, purest rock & roll this band has ever done. I think about this one often.

Warning: will put you on your ass. Gargantuan one. Can’t disagree with best post-hiatus one
