Tender, soothing, perfect. Brimming with firecracker... jerry rips a mean fret-flyer or two

down to business in the mines of emotion. Tight and incredible. A gem of a intuitive version with lots of rootsy charisma and swingin' euphoria..

Slow and serious. Mickey is masterful as is the overall tone control.Solo could have had more satisfying crescendo, fun lowkey set 1 vibe

I love this June 1976 sound, Mickey is back in the gang everything has more possibilities, a touch more force.

Always like to hear this Phil and Peter monk concoction, it's just burning and reminds you that everyone in the Dead loved Presley's TCB band with James Burton, Jerry accomplice Ron Tutt, Jerry Scheff and Glenn D. Hardin. Gram and the Burritos, not to mention the New Riders, and Commander Cody, were all in pursuit of this kind of sound and the Dead are right there in that post-hippie Cali country milieu.
