Eerie. this jerry-driven version is mired in the paranoia of imminent doom with the wink of cyberjazz. Reaches a to1-esque crater of solemn peace.

80s are a goldmine for LLR's, this one wirey, lustrous and cinematic.

welcome wink of a heel-diggingly true pure rendering. Spiky and down home like jerry and hunter's best evocations of timeless tribulation and delitez.

fantastic version - Swirling and bold, hivemind locked in, perfect balance of firey exclamation and tasty introspection.

check the date dude- explosive version that goes the distance, Wolf is howlin', two devils deviling and five golden rings, this one rules!

simply a monster version! grateful dead make rhythm their obedient subject all night, this wily sneaky version no exception. The group is thunderous and exploratory on EVERY song. what a night

love me my feedback nonsense but takes nothing away from this beautiful chill version, Keith and jerry rippling away into the night with archangels watching remorsefully from the rafters as we wave goodbye to winterland.

crux of a perfect show with 'beautiful jam' overtones, thunderous cathartic waves of inertia!
