Hot and sweaty sounding mix with a bit of a slow burn from Jerry - not crazy with the macho but cool.

Absolutely mesmerizing - this right here should be way closer to the top of the list than the bottom folks. Bird songesque fer sure. Soulful melodic energy - listen then vote your conscience.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Thanks DS - this rendition never fails to satisfy and Phil Lesh - nuff said! And also glad I’m not the only one who believes this take delivers the goods.

Do me a favor and just listen to this <flat reg or tape wobble or not> This China Cat is STACKED with ideas - this is like the Pandora’s box for China Cat riffs. Oh yeah then Phil brings the lumber on Rider lead bass guitar. Dang everybody’s exhausted so Jerry literally tries to shoot out all the lights before the last chorus. This is one of those did I just hear that? renditions. Sorry- just noticed I’ve been here before ha....and why I got on here was to say this CC is pretty fucking root gear for Country Jazz GD. ..
