Gorgeous, incredible, up and down, carnival-like bridge jam by Jerry. Picture perfect version--no flaws

April '78 S>F's often mentioned are 4/16 and 4/24 (rightly so) but this one is every bit as good. Superior transition jam--, beautiful, & powerful

Starts out Jazzy, explorative, takes its time, 3 minute intro, then blasts off into the stratosphere with intense Garcia-led jamming

Listened to this again and realized it needs to up voted. There's so much other crazy good stuff in the Ravenspace show that this Tower gets overlooked.

New convert here. What I love about this is the "space" section doesn't get all feedback/screechy or "spinal tap" silly (think of Derek Small's 'free form jazz odyssey' that they play at the festival where they get second billing to the puppet show), and instead it gets spookily quiet, ethereal, mysterious, and never annoying, and then it slowly, gracefully builds back into a lovely jam section that then spills over into a flat out kick-ass jam and into nearly countless musical landscapes thereafter. Just a unique, confident, ever-changing and always interesting Star that's climbed easily into my Top 5 faves of all-time. Thanks to all for the multiple rave reviews that finally got me curious enough to get DP 4 and check it out.

Very Upvote worthy!

Mother of mercy. Jerry's solos are deep, deep deep on this one. One of the best boards ever taboot.

Bobby can't resist adding a nice couple of China Cat licks right before Jerry sings the second verse.
