Gold Here. SUBLIME - this is where all the soft touches come together. Bob is especially deft with the underlying patterns. Phil is perfect.

I'm a sucker for China Dolls - this one has Jerry delivering very dreamy vocals on this one.

This collectively (with the CE) is easily one of the top 10 versions of this combination. Absolutely mind melding molten lava Jerry Silver Surferdom with Owsley glitches galore -note in particular 3:52-4:20 followed by Bob's next line "when I woke up this morning my head was not intact!" GTFO with such perfect timing. They panel this version from one end to the other take the ride and see - worthy of a listening and I think hard to deny your vote if heard. Protip turn this jawn up to 11. 1st version in top 10? it's well worth considering - ancient acid drenched roots of audio brownbrown.... oops I see I've commented on this before I guess I really like this one....hahah.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Dane County Coliseum
Jerry be nimble, Jerry be quick - Jerry gunslings all the way through this Rider with ease and fluidity. Mtn Jam riff is added bonus.
Sugar Magnolia
Nov. 22, 1972
Austin Municipal Auditorium
This is another ‘72 Sugar Mag humdinger for sure. Great rec DS. One of my favs is Dallas a few nights later that has some sort of x-factor hold over me. This has that same DNA ...might be better? Hmm I dunno but this is one of my favorite shows so that’d be fine by me. I really dig the ‘72 fall tour.
