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

It's kind of incredible that it seems like they really never got tired of playing this even though at this point they've been playing it every single show for about 2 years straight. It goes to show you that it's a quality song that passes the test of repetition. Plus that one who yells out "JERRY" after the end is totally me all the time

Cumulostratus violet waves of waterphonic wind and vision in the form of a 77 eyesie. Just smackin and dead on JG is fluttery feathers from heaven down under to us scrounging below.

Sweet empathy and compassion for the lost ones on the endless skyline after the work day ends, canteens emptied and the minions are trudging home. Bobby 'n Donna 'll catch 'em up. Again, one of the best Jacks i've heard so far
