Haunting materialization out of “Space,” nice playing from Jerry and Brent

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Glacial tempo allows the inherent beauty of the song to come through, and allows Garcia greater flexibility in his leads.

It's All Over Now Baby Blue

Frost Amphitheatre

I'm entering a Dylan/Dead kick, and it's because of things like this (and the Desolation Row from 5-10-1987).

You can tell Bobby's effort on the previous numbers lit a fire under the band's butt (and Jerry's vocals).

Although I do wish the blessed drummers had stuck with that deep 16th note groove, which kept pushing the beat and deepening the pocket.
