Sneaky version with great playing by Keith and Jerry. Love what Jerry plays at the end of the jam.

I know they should have played Dark Star in Egypt. But this is a fantastic EP. Dynamic, dramatic, Jerry on fire.

Huge, 18-minute version with great dynamics, deep vocals. Bobby's slide playing and interplay with Jerry are great.

Beautiful searching, inquisitive solos, plus you get to hear Jerry telling us to get yourself a parking lot

Jerry kills the middle solo and the interplay between him and Weir at the end is fantastic

The jam after Ship of Fools will make you go wait a minute, and replay it from the beginning.

I love it when Jerry plays angry. Check out the power chords. The Rango aud is incredible sounding.
