Cryptical Envelopment

Another classic from a year of Epic Crypticals!

The Music Never Stopped
March 28, 1994
Nassau Coliseum

This song was usually played quite well in the 90's. This one is huge at 9 mins with a hot final jam!

Meadowlands Arena

Nice 12 min stand-alone into Truckin'.

Feelin' Groovy Jam
Feb. 2, 1970
Fox Theatre

Tighten up sequence right into the Jam! One major aspect that makes this DS heady!

Madison Square Garden

This song became one of their best songs since Jer starting reprising the "Be with you'" in 1993. This one is killed too.

All Along the Watchtower
June 25, 1992
Soldier Field

Dead base in the day, had this as a top 5 show of 1992...I think.
Playin' In The Band
Nov. 6, 1979
The Spectrum

This thing is no joke!
Terrapin Station
Nov. 6, 1979
The Spectrum

I think its not as a hard hitting Terrapin, since its over 15 minutes and does have a jammed out feeling of being in the clouds. Nonetheless, unique and beautiful version.
Passenger
Nov. 10, 1979
Chrisler Arena

This is absolutely torched by everyone.
Playin' In The Band
Nov. 17, 1973
Pauley Pavilion - University of California

They did this sequence, I think 4 times. This is by far the best with all of the spot-on transitions. I don't think the Playin' ever gets tiger, but it is musically perfect to the ears. I completely agree with its top 5 ranking.
