Best paced version I've heard, slower, Weir sings a little softer than usual, not a fan of the Dead doing this usually but this one is superb

77's are different. "Better" is subjective and if you're in a 73 frame of mind this is "better" than 77.

To quote John McEnroe "you cannot be serious!!!!!!" ... I always love your thoughtful comments Mr. Garces but c'mon this is heady, the jazzy exploratory beginning leading to the amazing 74 weirdness beginning just before the 15 minute mark and scaring the bejesus out of the Montanans for 6 minutes before Phil bombs the place back into the driven, jazzy culmination ... it's a precious 74 Dark Star, you gotta cherish it! ... not to mention the buttery melt into China Doll
