Absolutely outstanding Garcia, a couple moments made my jaw drop

I dig this one, Garcia plays some longer, watery lines that get the job done in a satisfying way

Just listen to the Wolf--funky, dirty, sort of countrified--a unique and powerful version

Garcia is really clean and clear in the mix, which makes this one of my favorite versions. Weir's guitar is pretty buried this set, though

As good as it gets. You have to have the Bear version, but it cuts in during the second solo....I have one blended with the other (Miller?) which is really the only solution, because Jerry is cranked on the Bear version...

I agree, and 10-18 is equally great! You have to have the Bear version of 10-18, but it cuts in during the second solo....I have one blended with the other (Miller?) which is really the only solution, because Jerry is cranked on the Bear version....but I digress. Probably each as great as the other.
