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

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.

Huey Lewis adds harp effectively standing in for the late Pigpen. only 7 versions from the 90's, awesomely badass

Heavy. Mythos is triple decker thick. Creative devils and lesh with searing shuffle joy. Cogs grinding in poetic perfection to a rousing bluesy medley soaked in mollasses.

positively soaring!!! Sunbeaming with uncompromising tunnel marathon juju. Casually heavy, snarling brisk and graceful. Inspired energy. Exceptionally great version, top notch

yess, real nice and inspired stuff here. accompaniment starts tentative and deeeep in midi. Lots of nooks and crannies even before the expansive helicopter ride jam near 9mins which fearlessly stirs the strings of your stupid little puppets. look out for atonal jazzy weir and plush symphonic synth work, steel pitch bend fx jerry and polyrhythmic gumbo stash.
