Whopping late '77 version of this, the Dead intuitively coasting the waves of the atmosphere's collective imagination.

epic version. I can already see the acid freaks wailing in existential despair during the peaks of space. Mega heady. So good

sensational version of Terrapin. Every transition feels like a curtain falling to reveal a new, more emotionally charged and turbulent layer, even though i've heard this song dozens of times.
