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.

Baba O'Riley > Tomorrow Never Knows
May 31, 1992
Sam Boyd Silver Bowl

Picked these because I knew and loved the originals. In retrospect I would have started elsewhere, but that's in the past. I thought I was ready for the bus after the headiness of the originals, but how wrong I was!

Takes a minute to materialize out of "Playing," but that's worth hearing. Jerry rips out the "train" line!
Hey Pocky Way

Good times.

Nice solo from Jerry, and then a big contribution from Brent. Not to be missed by Brenantics. Giving this one the up-vote bump.
Queen Jane Approximately

Knickerbocker Arena

Surprisingly nice version, kicks up some at the end.
