Swings and rocks you back and forth so sweetly. Not my favorite Dead song, but this one is just a beaut.

A musical triumph capping an amazing 2nd Set. Soaring, almost Bird Songish intensity to the ensemble soloing. Perfect.

Are you kidding me?!? This just blazes white hot. Whole 2nd set is just a supernova.

The boys were still inspired after that 46min Playin' and it shows. Possibly the best US Blues I know of. Don't overlook it or the rest of the show!

Slightly faster with a steady ostinato bass that works beautifully. No dirge, but a thoughtful tale. I hear waves against a wharf at the end.

I hear every word your saying brother. Sorry for your loss. Strength to you that you can still dig the song. Coke has brought a lot of pain to my circles too, but I've been able to stay away from it while still not making it into a demon. Hella great show this May 14, 1970, isn't it?

How can you hate something you never did?

Having suffered a bout or two of the old Deep Elem Blues, I can say without hyperbole that this is exactly what they feel like. Top notch version here. Just exactly perfect.
