Jed As Tight Little Pop Song. Tight and snappy, enthusiasm for a new classic.

Smooth, silky, and that unique silvery June '76 Garcia sound.

Sitting on Top of the World
June 7, 1969
Fillmore West

Driving, rack & pinioned - out of space into this! I mean ? And King Garcia - ridic guitar breaks.
Casey Jones

Fillmore West

Loose as a caboosehead. But also turns on a dime when on the wrong track and headed for you.
The Other One
Feb. 22, 1969
Dream Bowl

This one has the full feature set. Luxurious AND efficient, if that's possible. And if it isn't possible, please don't explain it. Help would only confuse me.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Sept. 20, 1970
Fillmore East

At once all-over-the-place and laser focused. The guitars aren't pulling any punches - steel-tipped, brute force elegance.
Mason's Children
Dec. 29, 1969
Boston Tea Party

Garcia is in charge here - just dishing at will bold, confident sound waves from the SG. Rock. Powerful rock music.
