Adventure soundtrack - the group plays out a number of scenes. Garcia's the acrobatic narrator for the most part. Superb and interactive.

Big and round. Lesh is the wacked-out chauffeur. What a cool, bizarre run.

A strike-zone era Big River. Smooth & prickly.

ATOMIC! Garcia's subversive wah work only makes the area less safe for the public.

U.C.

Riveting, hi-octane blast! Garcia's taking the Strat into some fucking crazy places. This is a rainy day favorite - or any spare 10 minutes and 33 seconds.

Rossevelt Stadium

Garcia with the half-closed wah - pure genius. Sounds almost Frippian at points.

Rossevelt Stadium

Sort of shocked this one's as far down as it is - I think this an all-timer.

Insane transition. And then a zesty version.
