Almost a prayer. Stripped down, pure, harmonized and beautiful. Fans of the acoustic Candyman shouldn't pass this one by.

Sweet and solid show opener. A pure expression of the peak '70 year sound. Strap in and enjoy the show....

Yeehaw, but that's a sweet rare tune. Put Sawmill next to Slewfoot for gems from the era. Awesome stuff.

An acoustic lovely. I think DG is there on backup. It's rough-hewn, like just a couple offriends jamming on the verge of the bad crazy 1970s.

Acoustic wow factor, with beautiful harmonies. Unfortunate gap towards the end, but worth it still.

Here Comes Sunshine

Much more spacious (not Space though - no inter-galactic rocket ride here) with a relaxed and airy vibe, like a mellow walk in an open field. Nice version.
Eyes Of The World

Pauley Pavilion - University of California

Sure does: Nothing at all disposable in this 2nd set. In 100 years people will still point to this as a perfect example of what the Dead could do.

Come for the Playin'>UJB>Dew>UJB>Playin' sandwich... stay for the beautiful and hot stella dessert. Love the high-energy, high harmonies.

I keep coming back to this one and finding new things in it. Deserves its place at the top of the heap.

Man. That's really a beautiful one. I know, it's Veneta, but there are reasons why it's so popular.
