Hot damn can't believe this one hasn't been mentioned yet! Too much for words, just listen - this is the hottest of 1974 and one of the best ever!!!

Simply the best Cryptical Envelopment reprise ever. They take this one to Andromeda and back.

Yeah, idk how this one wasn't here yet! Such a legendary show.

No doubt a legendary version, but IMO 5/22/77 smokes this one. No contest.

Absolutely! I agree this one has it all over 5/8/77.

Excellent flowing and moody version with a great Garcia lead space transition into Stella B.

Very good version, but I like the ones from May '77 a bit better. The 2nd instrumental break is really interesting though, with Keith and Jerry getting into a sweet little duel of sorts.
