Bobby accidentally tries to bring it back into the chorus at the end, some heated bickering between him and Phil? Brent "Everybody makes mistakes!"

How is this not on here yet!? Comes right out of a gorgeous space, 1000 MPH Brent laying on the hammond, Jerry shredding, NFA claps to carry you along

A fiesty Sugar Mags...with HORNS?!? The band is firing on all cylinders for this one. The September '73 horns tour is so so so underrated

Dancin' in the Streets
April 15, 1970
Winterland Arena

Full steam ahead! Full of energy and has a pretty tighten up jam on the comedown
The Other One
April 15, 1970
Winterland Arena

This hit today. Like a truck. Loving the latin-esque Santana vamp jam in between the drum breaks. Stellar ripping by the whole band
Dark Star

William and Mary College Hall

Philip Lesh. Nuff sed
Let Me Sing Your Blues Away
Sept. 11, 1973
William and Mary College Hall

I wish they played this one as a late first-set tune more often. The sax by Martin Fierro is killer on this one. Just a really tight version
Morning Dew
Sept. 11, 1973
William and Mary College Hall

The Phil solo out of Dark Star is necessary to listen to in order to not get jump-scared by the massive bombs he lays to get this Dew started up...absolute monsters
