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

Phenomenal version, scary intro piercingly heavy angels. Everyone strapped in for type 2 feeling. Hits hard at the soul such as Burlington or Saratoga 83.

slow winner. clarion synth and delay textures, tunneled out garcia vocal. hits at the heart of their arena-borne sound, shows that the lineup with mydland had by now mastered the dimensions of their conventional size venues on tour. Resonant with sympathetic glee and virtuously gracing overtones into yer head feeding thru massive racks of solid state. Goes out quick tho
