AUD is preferable here. Lesh-heavy. Weir's work is outstanding. Billy and Keith hammer away g

Watch out for this one...the boys seem to be taking great pleasure in the intro jamming, as if they found a long-lost fave toy...Jerry's absurd.

Kicks off a big ol' Playin' sandwich, very meaty...the Playin' is good, but the transition and the subsequent Eyes are delicious

Kieth is doing some wonderfully inventive stuff here. It's Europe '72 so you know it's good

Absolutely killer! Jerry never ceases to amaze, and this is another example of his brilliance. Some of his licks in this tune manage to be both fire and ice, so passionate yet so slick and clean in their execution. God Bless the Grateful Dead!

Bignoze, maybe it's the recording? The AUD recording on archive is insane and full of an energy that carries me away. Maybe that's what does it, who knows? Give it a shot on archive tho.

Goosebumps without a doubt. Absolutely a go-to for me. Run, Run And SEE! Words simply cannot do this bad boy justice. My vote for #1.

Intense doesn't even do it justice. Face-melting is getting there...Notice the oddball Phil request for Mr. Sandoz D. Laudid backstage right before the song. Definitely kick-ass and one of the few best Estimateds out there.
