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.

Just hit this fabulous and deeply fascinating song again. The clip is drenched in raw intensity and I keep being mentally chased by Hunter knock-out punches like "all we ever wanted was to learn to love and grow" Doesnt get much realer than that to me. And this and so many roads started to outline a powerful new direction for the group that would have been solidified on their studio follow-up to Built to Last. It's all so tragic.
