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.

Fillmore East (Late Show)

crunchy and heavy NFA, pigpen organ fanning, they're locked in as hell on this. Sounds like this whole show is a must check out
The Other One

Rec Hall, Penn State U

monster 1980 version, fluid as hell. Brent sounds incredible, as do Billy and Mickey. they've really got the four-armed beast thing down pat on this. Nice and patient Other One, pairs well with a bong rip or two. really surprised this only has 6 votes, the jam goes the distance
