Great harp work from Pigpen, who's voice was still strong and full of blues: Great crunchy jamming from the band.

With the power to blast you out of your chair. Watch your dose, it's that strong.

Any question's about primal Dead? Answer's right here in the outro of this psychedelic monster. A really hard core brainmelter, this.

Has it all. Builds and builds up to a great peak with Jer and Keith playing all out behind a great Bobby performance.

Maybe I'm the only Head out there who digs this song, but damn if this isn't a beauty. Tight harmonies and a good-times feeling.

Crystal clear and jam-a-licious. A sparkling beauty.

Confirms why I'm not so into the '80s.

"Mellowish" but not mellow like the sleeeeeeeepy '76s. It still has some of the psychedelic bite from the primal years. Love love love it.

I'd vote for this one twice on the MLB alone. Zo zweet.
