You know the crew is feeling spritely and in a cowboy mood when they play this, blessed frequently in '89 with it.

Poker-hot WDD

Sweet, sweet, down-home and yokey Jerry.

Pigpen cut revived for the 90's with the group in kind of a slow crawling king snake vibe. Vince knows how to lay down some organ. Top late form.

Premiere of this stately Jerry ballad.

lean and mean!! I love the lightning bolt years! this one has a bit of a snakey, enigmatic charm to it, not a fist pumper. One to kick back

real hot!! Flying fretboard

Wondrous pirate ship ride

face stealer, explosively rouses a gentle ease

Menacing sampling section, gorgeous beam. Mickey always brought it and these passages has masterly narrative. If the dose hasn't kicked in, the space>DS>space will set the scene. Drenched in scary effects evoking bottomless seas of anarchic synth manic egos clawing at the walls of the mind. Everyone refracting each other's outbursts with tempered musical interior brilliance so as to pinwheel without being spun out. eventually the jazz cat boys start interpolating something and jerry responds with screaming virtuosic distorted runs which only makes weir intensify his anxious funk harder. First rate version. Final four minutes are tonal, resplendent, and suggest stella or china doll
