One of my favorite pieces of the Grateful Dead.

Powerful combo in the middle of one of my favorite second sets. Powerful drums, and listen to Garcia give that diminished chord a workout!

Fantastic version, one of the greatest.
The Other One

Pauly Pavillion

Agreed. Worth a listen, gets quite spacey (with Brent channeling some 70s electric jazz for good measure).
Cold Rain and Snow
April 15, 1970
Winterland Arena

Cuca, you'll love the ripping jam into TOO. I've never heard anything like it.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
April 19, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

This is a mighty fine version! I love your descriptions. As someone who just moved out of the great state of Maine, there's nothing like turning something great up, sitting out on the porch with something tasty to consume, and living the dream.
Cold Rain and Snow
April 29, 1971
Fillmore East

I think they actually rather mangle the transition (they're in different tempos for godssakes) but that's part of the magic for me.
