Sneaky good! The St. jam to me is close to perfect it stretches out and builds nicely.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
May 4, 1981
The Spectrum

Somebody please listen to this combo and confirm to me that I am crazy - the CC is super sweet but the IKYR shows what a sneaky fast picking MOFO JG really could be - blows my mind. Whole recording is warm and full.

Check out the whole show - some real jems at this one worth spending time on IMO. Jerry was fully engaged to my ears and the band was locked in. Space will blow your mind if you're not careful too!

Jerry goes on multiple cosmic banjo styled jams during this CC transition.

That's a 10-4 Gman. Hey Darkstar and G check the 7/14/85 ignore the year and tell me what you think - every time I hear it love it more.
