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

PEWWWW a face-melter. Holy smokes, that was an amazing stand-alone 70's LIG that had this crowd in the palm of a particularly mischievous and volcanic Dead's hand. A riotous version essential for "face-spacing"

Ripping version, clarion version of this cut.. Absolutely slamming!!!! We love intimate college gigs, from columbia, harpur to montana 74, illinois 78 and this barn burner shred fest set 1

Here Comes Sunshine

Boston Music Hall

Don't sleep on this loping, winding version. Lots to say about Here Comes Sunshine, which has a version that basically made Dick Latvala start Dick's Picks, see Tampa 73. I'd venture to say this jam comes close to that take
