Love how Jerry starts his first solo. The rest is great too. His playing is easy and free.

Jerry sounds tired and pained here, which of course is perfect. For some reason he usually doesn't nail the solo in this tune but he does here.

Love the laid back feel and Jerry's wiry, ambling sound on 77 NMBs

Good lord. This jam will make you pause in the middle of household chores and forget what you were doing.

The Dead deserve a lot of credit for being willing to play like this relatively late in their career when they were selling out major venues. Even if you're not tripping this DS will widen your pupils
