Growling, aggressive, hard driving Samson that deserves to be on this list.

Ooooo... I like it. Interesting that it's not on Setlists.net

Haha... The song was played 380 times and 175 of them were the best ever.

I never expected anything as good as this from 1995, and I guess this is as good of a reason as any to vote for it. As a song to song comparison, however, 4/22/86 is just absolutely better. Garcia goes nowhere with the solo here, but his singing is truly sweet.

Of course we enjoyed this one, Dicky... But I just like NYE 84 a bit better.

My favorite.... But really, they all sound the same... Like the "Best" Don't Ease...
