Awesome syncopation and rhythms by Phil and the drummers. I listen to many a Cassidy's and this one really stuck out to me for some reason, try it out

Whoa! That first solo is when Garcia is just getting starting, just listen to his excitement going into that following verse. Then of course the rest of the team pick up on all that energy and lead it to magnificence!

Some guy in the audience sounds like he's about to lose his shit as their doing that quiet build out of DS and into the opening of St Stephen. I would too after hearing everything that preceded!
