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

Interesting to hear from u Grendel as a tour hound. As a next gen it is easy for me to love 1985 especially the spring summer run, just boatloads of fun in how fat the tones and driving and wandering yet propulsive the whole thing is. Euphoric transition, oh to get greasy on the bus to jams such as this
