Jerry is very, very sharp on this. Except for the lyrics.

This version rewards multiple listens. Like it was good the first time, great the second. I hesitate to listen to it again. Bobby leads the way.

Jerry plays one brilliant idea after another as Phil provides counterpoint.

I recommend this mix for Phil: https://archive.org/details/gd79-04-22.sbd.bennett.12001.sbeok.shnf/gd79-04-22d3t04.shn

Phil and Jerry are really feeling it on Brent's first tune. You know it's going to be alright when you hear the first note Phil plays.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Leave it to the Dead to play one of the best ever versions of a tune after not playing it for years and before playing it about 10,000 more times.

Richmond Coliseum

This coda made me lose control of the car. And I wasn't even driving. Needs votes.
The Other One
Feb. 3, 1979
Market Square Arena

Best Other One of this era. Phil is out of his mind. Listen to him in the intro.
