Jerry and Pigpen sing together in this one, and they brought the passion!

Constanten really adds to the texture of this, exciting feedback!

High intensity, coming in hot after a hot Caboose jam.

Powerful version. The vocal entrance at the end brings the house down, you can tell they're having fun; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gjjkcVIoys

Bob goes for it in the rap and Garcia smiles a bit. A fun latter day version, though it never jams out like mad. Video of it here! https://www.youtube

Listened to this while falling asleep yesterday, needless to say i slept well. No mistakes here, they're giving it the full treatment this night. Love this version!

Incredible, the outtro takes off completely. Dude420, i think this became my favourite as well.

Relentless. This has to be one of the best from '74, with Phil bombs, non-stop pickin' from Jerry, "No-breaks-on-this-train" Billy, and with Bob and Keith functioning as a unt behind it all.

Tight as all hell, awesome Trucksplosion, insane thematic jamming > non-thematic jazz > Space > Let It Grow. It looks about as unreal as it sounds, and the fact this Truckin' has five votes compared to the 5/19 version at the top of list is a shame, this one is like an upgraded version.

Bobby shines here, and the subtle Nobody's Fault teases in the jam before drums are really cool. A fine Truckin' jam which never loses it's momentum, severely underrated!
