Not going to dethrone Veneta by any means but still a worthwhile spacey, concise, chilled out rendition. Some nice melodic chord jamming from Garcia.

Was surprised to see this wasn't already here. Phenomenal solo from Jerry and some beautiful cascading keys courtesy of Keith

Very subdued but staccato sounding solos if that makes any sense, pretty standardly great 78 version here

With feeling. These songs are underrated. Especially sailor

Great rec on this one heady friends. Get the matrix by mdmilhausen. Very nice matrix; real warm and roomy. Jerry's leads are lucid, rhythmic, and soulful here. Brent bounces off of him perfectly. I'll never argue against Brent being better than Keith on shakedown. His keyboard tones fit perfectly with this song in contrast to other songs where they sound a little out of place.

Not sure how often I will revisit this one, but a very interesting/unique rendition. Definitely reminiscent of a Bertha groove. First solo opens up with a lot of bursty pull-offs. Very different style of eyes soloing

Fantastic. I like Brent in this one. Very nice from the outro through the transition to eyes

Cameron Indoor Stadium

Fantastic. Fast but not too fast to the point where the solos get disjointed. If the eyes has got an elongated intro jam then I'm all in
