Remember that episode of Seinfeld where Kramer bursts in and asks Jerry and Bobby "who wants to go down to Rockaway Beach and listen to a killer, loud, booming, Dead show Aud recording?".

Judge decreed it. Clerk he wrote it down. I'll cease and desist. Got a little Casey Jones there on all the Venn recommends. Good call. And yes, this is a fantastic Bird Song.

Even Dead music for things like household chores and the more mundane tasks of living. The soundtrack of Life
