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

Incredible tapestry of garcia and lesh happiness. breezy and earthy, a wonderfully tasteful forebear and complement to the next year's Roosevelt shredfest.

Ambient electroacoustic goodness
