Great, long Big River with awesome interplay between Jerry and Keith. Always a great jam from Download series Vol. 4

Great one, would probably be more highly voted if there was better sound
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Just came here to make an observation: China>Rider is definitely one of my favorite Dead "songs" and while this is a very good version, I really don't think it's upper echelon and am not a big fan of the Feelin Groovy jam in this one. That being said, reading the above comments just makes me appreciate the multitude of different things Deadheads can take out of the music! Different strokes for different folks, and at the end of the day it's all love here for the most beautiful music in the world. (my personal fav is 6/22/74 if you're curious)

This is such a great and underplayed song IMO, so catchy just wish they played it more. Donna knocks it out of the park!
