really sweet transition from space, the band goes into a unique post-space jam that flows like butter into a ripper of a NFA.

Brent is spectacular. prophet>caution jam is a wonderful surprise! The ending caution jam is one of the best "jams" the dead did. groovy, punchy, light and dark at the same time... AH!

The early start of the first solo is super groovy. Jerry rocks it, he even tunes up quick during it and makes it fit! Great version.
