Captures all that's great about this song. Uplifting, joyful, smile-inducing. Can't believe this one's not here yet.

Supreme version: Fast, precise and galloping. Great harmonies with Jer singing backup.

Propulsive and moody. Melodic developments developed over 20 minutes of energetic jamming. Billy and Phil are driving throughout.

Expansive, exploritory, and spaced out in places, a nice ride and another great from Spring '73.

By ambivalence I mean Jerry's well known hesitation to bust out and rearrange Stephen again post-Godchauxs. As iconic as it is, Stephen was notable for its absence as much as for its presence in my experience as a head throughout my time on the bus.

One of the beastliest, most rockingest versions from this special transitional era between the psychedelic primal dead INTO the country, before the jamathon Dead we love from 72-74. 70-71 are special times and this doesn't disappoint.

Soldier '15 in full spirit, but not in flesh. Wish I could be there guys, oh how I do. Enjoy it, tape it, share it, love it, live it...

Modern Head, I've been going chronologically through 1970 lately, and discovering some amazing stuff, and also rediscovering the sometimes pleasures of certain AUDs over cleaner SNB. Typically I take one calendar year to listen to in order, while dipping in and out of other shows as the mood strikes, and depending on the credibility of whomever recommends it... O_o indeed. '70 is quite special all told tho. You'll always know where to find me!
