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

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.

magical stella with some absolutely fantastic dual lead work from jg and bw at the end. No one does a ballad like these guys

What a treat this St. Stephen, cruisin' down a sunny highway at calm speed, smelling the roses all the while. '77 goodness.
