Never loved this song, but they nailed it at this last great run of shows in Memphis.

Best one in the Blues slot, but can't wear the jock of 12/28/1991. Don't get mestarted on how epic that show was and underrated.

This one is a beaut.
Caution

FYI... this show that should be in everyone's top 10 is 25% off at dead.net. It includes an amazing analysis of the 46 minute DS that is spot on and helps with understanding all the themes of the epic DS. This Caution is one of the best, also.

This one is a classic from a classic show.

This DS is not for everyone. I do believe that it requires multiple listens to really respect how complex it is with its multiple themes. I can see after one listen that it may not be for everyone. It does deserve respect in GD lore, though. The first 13 minutes is pure DS theme.
