This one has more of an Other One-ish feel than most...they seem like they're pushing for it but end up going in a completely different direction

Very graceful playing on this one, gets kind of spacey leading up to a smooth as butter transition into Dark Star.

Killer jam out of this Truckin' with a huge peak that gives way to some fast-paced space-jazz from Jerry, and landing on a quick little mellow MLBJ

Beautiful, mellow version. Garica's tone is especially sweet, with an almost country-ish flavor; sounds like he's using a bit of slide?

Absolutely ON FIRE. Hottest version of the spring tour, easily.

Assembly Hall - Indiana University

Wonderful outro, with a *seamless* transition from the triumphant sounding jam of WR back to the space-jazz jamming of Playin' reprise.

Amazing, triumphant jamming. One of the most powerful versions ever played.
