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.

It's a special ROR, and Jerry knows it's hot as shit and is very happy with the band's work on this. Positively crackling with uproariously amazing energy. obsessed with the 2-bar jerry lick over the V chord at 3:55

Hugely powerful sandwiched playing in this 2nd set technique of dipping through themes in and out of spacey sepulchral hymns, rhythms of the spheres invoked by Garcia's spinning.
