Wedged in a energetic psychdelic explosion,this Merle Haggard classic provides a contrast in mood and direction. Jerry's twanging it up!

Mystery Dew! I don't think this was played during this show. Listen on the Glassberg/Miller on the archive.

If you like this song. even a little bit, you have to listen to this version! For my money this is as good as this song gets!

A crisp, cooking Allligator that was somehow missed. It transitions into Drums, then a t 11, tease, jam then the 11.

If you're in tears after listening to a version of this song, then you know it's a good one. This is a good one!

Great recommendation Cgarces! This song wasn't in my radar, but it's a good song. A buried treasure, for sure!

Jerry got wolf back on that very date, 9-28-77. I assume that he would have used it for that show. He did switch back to the Travis Beam off and on during 77. But your right, which ever guitar he was using did sound delightful!

Jerry took Wolf on a stellar sonic exploration on this one. The drummers really drive this version along as they transition into Space. Very nice!
