Space

River Bend Music Center

I have definitetly been know to FFWD through Space on playback, but this one is just beautiful. Starts out very spaced out, then gets blissful.

McArthur Court, U of Oregon

This one just keeps building, and building, until MASSIVE PEAK. All kinds of tension/release

Been a while since i have spun this one - it shoots straight into the cosmos. Very spacey

Great way to start an epic two-night run in the mothership

The Other One
April 15, 1970
Winterland Arena

Oh my GOD, the jam out of Drums on this! Very Santana-esque jam, as Coralsand articulated. Primal 70's hyper-speed muscle. Very choice
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Oct. 27, 1973
Indianapolis State Fair Coliseum

Very interesting to transition into this out of PITB. Love the curveball. Fine version taboot
Playin' In The Band

Indianapolis State Fair Coliseum

Hits a very nice, melodic peak and the unusual meat material in the sandwich is undeniably tasty
Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
April 1, 1984
Marin County Veterans Auditorium

Agree in total with HVD. Sick slipknot and the Franklin's is a very bouncy piece of fun. Great version of the suite - nice choice for 30 days of dead
Truckin'
Oct. 2, 1972
Springfield Civic Center

Agree, the Truckin' is fine, but the real magic comes with the NFBM > Drums > Feelin' Groovy Jam. The keys/drum/bass jam after the Drums is super interesting, then Lesh pulls them into an utterly sick Groovy jam. Great, great sequence
