Oh so kind with a special echoey tone that fits perfectly. Spritely and delicate in all the right ways - poignant.

Still believe this is one of the best unheralded versions of this tune...worthy of listens and votes.

Feelin' Groovy Jam
Dec. 4, 1973
Cincinnati Gardens

While of course it’s best to listen to one of the finest ChinaRiders of’73 all the way through - if not - just pickup this Feelin Groovy at 5:00 and wait for the delicious drop in at 6:15...Mmmmmm mmmm delicate and so very very kind. I swear once you hear this you will go back and repeat it.

Full aerial assault - everything you want in this jet fueled delivery. No jivin’
New Minglewood Blues
April 1, 1988
Meadowlands Arena

Later’ish version with Jerry and the gang going bananas - listen to Phil go full tilt while Jerry goes off. He tosses in a Beck Goin’ Down riff in there too just for shits....
