Unique segue into Cumberland Blues. A nice little adventure away from the normal Rider.

I wouldn't really call this version "peppy". Take a look at any version from '77 if you want peppy. I'd call this one "lethargic".

Has all the right dynamics in this version. This is a good one!

This version is cool, a lot different to the version that opened 9/2. This version is a lot looser and stretched out. Seamless segue into Dew at the end.

I'd play this version at a Grateful Dead dance party.

As nice of a Dew as you are going to hear from the late 80's. The single sour note it manages to end on does hurt it from being on the top of '87 Dews. Bummer.
