Jed As Tight Little Pop Song. Tight and snappy, enthusiasm for a new classic.

Smooth, silky, and that unique silvery June '76 Garcia sound.

Thanks DS67 - swell new matrix! May 77 is such a sweet spot for this song. 5/19 is, for me, the industry standard. This one might be just a nick behind - just b/c the guitar break in 5/19 is complete perfection. Garcia basically turns into Scott Joplin. This one is merely excellent. Still - an aces version.

Tucked in AND kind of wild version. Fiercely melodic and flowing sweet rendition of this classic.
