Keith shines on a long, flowing intro section that spills into space-mellow Rat-Goodness

Emerges from Space with a very long intro & very distinct and sustained St. Stephen tease! My favorite version.

Part of what made this Alpine run so legendary. Soulful and Brent-astic.

Maybe the best pure hard riving Rock&Roll version. Lean, mean, and Jerry supreme!

Rarely heard (left out of DP Bonus tracks for Vol. 34) but another sweet/smooth '77 winner.

I think I like this one even a bit more than the December TN performance. The jam is just so picture perfect and lovely while still being intense and Ga4cia is so way into the vox, delivering the goods without even one lost lyric.

This is how I like it. No offense to Pig, but the versions where he raps to the audience & tries to get people to hook up are just too cheesy for me. It's a shtick and he basically repeated himself with slight variations whenever he did it. But in this case the band isn't in a ballroom like the Avalon or wherever and he can't address people on the floor cuz they're all in seats in an old school concert hall so instead he does his thing but without the hook-up rap and it gives the band such a better opportunity to shine and boy do they ever. There are some stretches where it's all Garcia but many more where Bob's rhythm really moves things along and the real star is Billy, who's just in an unbelievable zone here.Far and away my favorite Lovelight, even though I think the tune had a nice revival in the early 90's especially w/Branford chipping in on sax. This is the one, though.

^^^^ Sounds better than ever! Thanks for the heads up, Darkstar67.

Encore version from a grossly overlooked '76 masterpiece of a show. Phil and the drummers take no prisoners.

Time I upvoted this & could go through most of the show doing so, one of my top 3 faves of 1974. Just a real crisp standalone here, not ultra-expanded but with a great burst of energy from Garcia in the heart of the jam.
