Out of China Cat, incorrectly listed on Dick's Picks 12 as "Mind Left Body Jam" is actually a Feelin' Groovy jam. Absolutely wonderful.

I can't believe this version isn't here. So emotive, Jerry's voice is unlike anything I've heard, gives me the chills every time. Just beautiful.

Please tell me they did this combination (DS->Bird Song) in 72. Can you imagine something like it? Eargasmic

@cgarces, thanks for the sugestion, 5/11 is definitely on my "to listen" list. I'm going through Europe 72 in chronological order and still have 3/4 of the way to go. 4/8 definitely became one of my top 10 dark stars.

Amazing, Jerry's solos are on point (the whole band too, for that matter)

Pigpen's voice is way down on the mix, but jerry is on fire and makes it up for the poor mix
