Gorgeous, well-paced high energy version. Playin'>Wharf>Truckin'>NFBM (theme only)>Playin' reprise

You'll hear voices and see faces in this abstract assault which showcases exceptional group interplay. Bertrando's AUD is VG+.

Warning: May cause goosebumps. Bertrando's AUD is VG+.

I always thought that Summer '74 was the best period for this tune but this version is sick.

If you want to hear something sweet from 1984, check this out!!!

Step away from that there still, boy, 'cause Jerry is absolutely smokin' on this one.

Excellent stuff here, no doubt about that. The band is in fine form and Garcia's soloing is...edgy yet sweet and very inventive; and he solos twice here. Yeah, this song is only known to have been performed less than twenty times live. It was apparently recorded for the 'Workingman's Dead' album but was reportedly left off due to the fact that it wasn't unique enough stylistically. Or maybe it was because they thought that the content of the lyrics was too 'current events'. Hunter stated that it is, at least in part, about the Altamont Free Concert. Which is impressive, as Altamont occurred on 12/6/69 and look at when these versions were played. For me, the song sounded like something from the mid-60's, and, at least stylistically and melodically, made me think of California beaches full of surfers on longboards with 1964 Chevy Bel Air and Ford Falcon Stationwagons, etc. with surfboards on the roof. Anyway, this version kicks ass. Thanks for pointing me to this one, guys.

I see now that Tronathon originally meant to post this version--and he's right, it's very good!

A 'mellower' take on the tune for this time period. I like how everybody gets a little of the spotlight on this one.

'...full of the wheels within wheels of groupmind.' That is what should be written above in the description of this song. Spot on!
