A delicate, tight, searching super early version of a staple. Kruetzmann plays it light and springy and that 1971 Lesh caramel bass guitar!

If you know this smooth customer of a show, you know how drynamic [yes, I typed that] and user friendly this TJ is. An always welcome visitor.

Few things better than a June '76 Sugaree. Garcia with the first Travis Bean just sketches with the lightest, barest of precious metal filaments.

Summer '72 Jed: Sweet dynamics & precision engineering. Weir & Kreutzmann stir it up during Garcia's guitar break.

A cozy little delight - hand percussion, contemplation, great stereo drums, and some rip roaring riffage. Comes in under the radar, but worth a visit.

With the new Dave's, I think this gets more votes. It is sweet. Of course, there were so many great Jack Straws at this time . . .

Weir on absolute fire. Magisterial. Majestic.

Yeah JoeyMC - ideal length for this one. Everything that needs to be said is said eloquently and also action packed.

And sounds very nice on Dave's 46.

Lean & mean. The subtle dynamic shifts are breathtaking.
