This one has more of an Other One-ish feel than most...they seem like they're pushing for it but end up going in a completely different direction

One of the best mellow blues versions...killer noodles from Jerry

Very graceful playing on this one, gets kind of spacey leading up to a smooth as butter transition into Dark Star.

Killer jam out of this Truckin' with a huge peak that gives way to some fast-paced space-jazz from Jerry, and landing on a quick little mellow MLBJ

Beautiful, mellow version. Garica's tone is especially sweet, with an almost country-ish flavor; sounds like he's using a bit of slide?

Wonderful version, the best June '74 Eyes IMO. The proto-Slipknot that develops out of the post song jam is especially wicked, but the entire performance of the song is truly special in every way.

One of Phil's finest moments, he just won't quit soloing. You can tell Jerry is trying to come in with the minor jam and Phil just shuts him down!
