Mountain Jam
July 27, 1973
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.

Have cried plenty of times with this one, specially the first few times I heard it. Jerry is a little bit off with the slide as mentioned previously. The band isn't backing Brent's vocals up like they normally do also. But there is plenty that Brent is giving us that makes up for it for it for me. He fills that space beautifully.

Groovy as fuck :D Phil and the rhythm devils are coming through just handsomely, Brent's energy is through the roof, and Garcia follows their lead with vox and solos that are on point. Perhaps best one, perhaps not. Who cares, its a real fun Aiko. The footage of this really makes it special.

The SSDD is good fun, or as Bobby calls it here “sweetshine daydream.” Then he starts growling it at you. Ends as awkward and sloppily as just about most late Sugar Mags do.
