97
Dark Star
A clean, focused, jazzy, and sweet Dark Star into a gorgeously breath-taking Mind Left Body Jam. "Beyond words" sums it up best.
23
Sugar Magnolia
Normally not my favorite tune, but this one is jammed out, Jerry throws noodles all over this version.
78
Eyes Of The World
Dick's Picks 19. Otherworldly jamming leading up to a soulful stella, Jerry sounds incredible!
63
Stella Blue
Cliche to say "I can't believe this isn't on here," but I'm sayin' it! It's perfectly and beautifully executed. The definitive '73 version.
55
Mind Left Body Jam
Brilliant, glowing-embers version of MLB, rising, phoenix-like, from the ashes of Dark Star. Beautiful slide work from Jer...face-meltingly beautiful!

Jack Straw
Someone start singing five seconds too early, but stop immediately and wait until the right bar.

Mexicali Blues
Literally the only song from DP19 to not be listed. I don’t see why because this is heady to say the least. Makes me wanna dance
