I know this is apart of the 27 minute MLTB Jam, but clearly half way into it...it becomes DS. An amzing 27 minutes, regradless!

This one should not be denied. Heady version out of a hot Estimated and into a gorgeous China Doll!

This one is a beaut.
Caution
May 11, 1972
Rotterdam Civic Hall

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.

Fillmore West

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.
