loose framework and kinetic devils make for a transparently unhinged EP. Hoarse disney villain melt to he's gone. Summer 84 flowing treasure.

Raucous bold brushstrokes of back porch shenanigans. Well-oiled

continues devils' field day with whimsy. so many shades of this cut... Angelic, aligned, welcoming.

inspired, pouncy. They skip rocks with it, drifting on a reed

billy kreutzmann sounds so damn tight on this. And god damn keith is doing some important things on this version. It's truly a gift that we have footage of this, one of my favorite dead songs at its epic birth

i fucking love this shit man. Keith lays down a nasty and uber tasteful solo. Jerry and bill are on lsd too, look in their eyes, you can see it

Bobby is dosed to the gills. just look at him before the song starts in the clip. and probably the rest of them are as well. This is after all the tour where Donna came to while she was hiding under Keith's piano during a dark star. This bobby mcgee is absolutely gorgeous and oh so psychedelic. Positively brimming with poignancy and Jerry is just too cool for words. Dedicated por los muertos. those germans probably didn't know what was hitting them. Very intense, funereal, jerry lays into the version with feeling
