Superb, a distant reach-out from the AUDmurk of time. A special treat here.

Totally free. There are Mountain Jam themes, met with Stephen Jams, then Bid You Goodnight themes. Seems they couldn't get enough. Good stuff.

The single best transition into Cosmic Charlie (from TOO) that I know of. From an era when they still meant it as a psychedelic anthem... Love this.

The Dead invented hard rock. There it is. This is when they were at their most dangerous, their most 'hide the kids' threatening to the squares. This version shoots you out of the cannon and blows you to a million pieces, before landing back safely at the beautiful Cryptical to follow: Jagged and heavy peaks, scary circles within circles and loops and fractal roller coasters where you're either on the bus or under it. Those who know don't always say, and those who say don't always know....

Swagger and strut. Bobby just owns the vocals, plus what's been said here already about Keith, who's just brilliant throughout this underrated show.
