Madison Square Garden

The Devils go totally tribal after they take this down to pin drop quiet and at the end JG cranks the rusty blade.

Bobby colors this one finely and Jer dishes the backup vocals and riffs perfectly - they nail the changes to make this one glow. (matrix)

A warm wash of sound with Garcia doing some vibrato on the vocal that makes it special and very sad indeed.

nice one - I like his tone on this over the '94 (while that is a powerful jam). I can't handle that later sound of lighting bolt (?) like he's playing with nylon strings.

Jerry was on fire for this and the Terrapin. His attack on the first jam is CRAZY and then he chills out for the build up on the 2nd jam - his tone and pacing are perfect to me on this one.... the slow building, explorative work by Phil and Jer's staccato play along with Bobby's rhythm work - they hit many tasty grooves on this before the CAR CRASH ending.
