Very inspired playing. Jazzy swing from the rhythm devils, Lesh is barreling down the low end, and Jerry dancing the leads to a powerful conclusion

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one takes a bit before the boys get their footing, but once they do, LOOK OUT. Choice peak in this throbber

Sorry, think this is supposed to be 10/3. Refering to the one on Dead Set. Wikipedia has the wrong date listed. Give it a spin - my favorite version hands down

Respun this one during a long flight yesterday. Was rock out pretty hard. Got an odd look from the guy next to me when I finally took off my headphones. This NFA is the GOODS, check it out
