Jerry and Bobby create a beautiful space before TOO. A conversation in strings. Billy and Mickey create primal, carnivorous music. Hunting music.

What a crown jewel Pretty Peggy O can be. A truly tender version that washes away all my worries. These 74 versions are quite special.

The Dead take the Parisians through a cowboys surrealist day dream. Check out how both Keith and Jerry are utterly locked into the music.

1974 and Ship of Fools go together like peanut butter and jelly. Full of emotion. They're really giving their all in this.

Underrated show!! Absolutely groovin Cumberland that doesn’t overstay it’s welcome at all, at times very mellow and overall just a nice flowing jazzy country jam over here, lovey keyboard work from keith

This is pretty bonkers not gonna lie, stellar version that cools you off after that deep and dark The Other One while still making you feel like you’re walking the tightrope. Love love love this version and how light yet heavy it can be. Don’t wanna be that guy but don’t listen to Nog. Let your ears decide! Love to all

Really should be higher, I’m not even that much of an estimated fan but this version is really heartfelt, great energy here!
