The studio version from "So Many Roads" box set. Fantastic version featuring great harmony between Bobby and Jerry.

Always love Garcia's guitar dancing around the vocals in this tune. Listen to the scrub at the end of the first solo break!

Just bumped this one. Very infectious groove. Listening to it on Headphones as Im doing the dishes and it makes you want to groove. Love this F--in' Band!

It Must Have Been The Roses

I'm a sucker for the emphatic singing by Garcia in the spring of '78...He really experimented vocally during this time period. Perhaps due to compensating for post laryngitis vocal chords, perhaps the drugs du jour. Either way makes alot of his ballads good. This Roses is one of them.

This is one of those songs that is so beautiful and so sad. This was Garcia's swan song. Often times its hard to listen to because its reminiscent of the last day of Jer.
