This is a chill one- groove out to it and get some Satisfaction.... with great Brent support in there too!

So sublimely executed, Jerry adding awesome textures and the Godchauxes bringing the song to new levels!

The Matrix

A fantastic version... Jerry's voice is young and bluesy, Bob contributes some mighty fine vocals, Jerry's rootsy solos... but Pig's harp? BLUES, BABY

RFK Stadium

1) An awesome bluesy jam vehicle.. 2) When the hell did you ever hear them bust this one out? 3) This is the '73 RFK Show. That should be enough :)

No... I'm sorry, the one with Day Tripper in '85 was the worst one of all time. This shows is far better! (Listen the the penultimate Scarlet>Fire!) Worst Show: http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=title%3A%28Grateful%20Dead%29%20AND%20date%3A1985-08-24

Jerry's hands must have been propelled by some kind of sonic musical motor.
