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

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

Hard to Handle
April 27, 1971
Fillmore East

Hot shit (and that "Okie" is too funny, given the context). It's been on my list, but I haven't heard anything from this run before. Can't wait to tuck in after hearing this!

Hot and light at the same time. Some deadly thumps from Phil too!

Some nice playing! Have yet to hear a '73 "HCS" that's not worth a listen.

Hell yeah! It's a thick version with everyone going off on it at once. And listen to Bob go!
