Very solid St Stephen that bleeds effortlessly into a raucous Eleven

Hits a nice mellow calypso jam, then shoots into a flurry of energy to reach a massive peak! Loving the new Dave's Picks release

Hofheinz Pavilion

Lesh takes the reigns about half way through and from then on, this one is pure magic. Very uplifting jam to close, then buttery segue into WRS

Minor lyrical flubs could not be of lesser relevance for my enjoyment. This one is a solid rendition. Some nice emotive vocal chaw from Jerry in the final verse/chorus

Fully agree. The boys hammered NFA's in '71 and this one is no different. Nice Keith/Jerry interplay before the transition!
