Jerry really connects the dots in the solo. The first few phrases in particular are sublime.

Brooding, hypnotizing version. Beautiful playing by Jerry and Brent, and brilliant vocal with unexpected touches.

Best Brent solo I've ever heard on this tune. Jerry follows up in style.

Great solo with brilliant Brent accents, and then burning coda. Check out what Jerry plays at 6:06. Listen to the Bob Morris aud.

How is this not on here? Dark and deep, dominated by Phil and Bobby.

Love the laid back feel and Jerry's wiry, ambling sound on 77 NMBs

Good lord. This jam will make you pause in the middle of household chores and forget what you were doing.

The Dead deserve a lot of credit for being willing to play like this relatively late in their career when they were selling out major venues. Even if you're not tripping this DS will widen your pupils
