One of the craziest, spaciest, and wacky versions you’ll ever hear

Feelin' Groovy Jam

Winterland Arena

The final version from an epic China>Rider. Doesn’t get any better

One of the best versions of this song that Jerry did. There seems to be 2 guitar players on this track. Anyone have any info on that?

Kevin Tobin just put out a nice video of this Garcia/Kahn show with great audio. I didn’t know they played this one as a duo. Great version!

Surprised this version isn’t on here. Bobby’s vocals and playing are great, and Brent’s verse and solo really make this a top tier version

The first post-hiatus version, and it’s oh so sweet

The jam on this rides the line between TLEO and something completely unique. This is my new favorite version by far
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Nassau Coliseum

From the Feelin’ Groovy jam onward, this version is top tier for sure. The China Cat however feels very choppy and awkward. Still a good version though

This one is extra great, especially the outro jam. One of the best I’ve heard

This version is really good. Brent’s keyboards are high in the mix(especially at the beginning), and the solos are magical
