Eerie. this jerry-driven version is mired in the paranoia of imminent doom with the wink of cyberjazz. Reaches a to1-esque crater of solemn peace.

First rate. Excellent group blend, they're ready for the fireworks of the two years to follow

80s are a goldmine for LLR's, this one wirey, lustrous and cinematic.

welcome wink of a heel-diggingly true pure rendering. Spiky and down home like jerry and hunter's best evocations of timeless tribulation and delitez.

You might be right. Nonetheless, a classic slow Deal. Like so many of our favorite creators and artists, the Dead have several evolutionary phases each with their own unique things to love.

Average big river. Still some Keith gun slingin' though.

I mean come on, with 125 votes for this jack straw, you'd think people would check out the rest of this prime 70's dead set. This he's gone is just insanity!
