Chugs along at a nice clip. It was included on Dozin' At the Knick, which I believe qualified it as heady.

1989 was a very good year for Birdsongs. This one deserves consideration along with 10/8/89 and 12/8/89.

Mind Left Body Jam
March 24, 1990
Knickerbocker Arena

I'm not 100% certain, but I think the reason for the change is to be able to give Brent's estate a cut of the songwriting credits (since he wasn't a member of the Grateful Dead when they first came up with the "Mind Left Body Jam.")
