Jerry's having a great night, and check our Brent in the segue to Eyes!

Keith (and everybody) is so on point in this twangy humdinger.

It's a great little tune when they play it like they did in summer '73.

A few passages transported me back to a Good Lovin’ jam from 20 years earlier, which I was not expecting. Anyway, this is great Grateful Dead.
The Music Never Stopped

The Palladium

Verrrry sharp, hot jam. Check out the great MOTB AUD.
Bird Song
Aug. 5, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

Brisk, understated, lovely. I need to do more exploring, but I can’t recall enjoying a ’71 Bird Song more than this.
Queen Jane Approximately
April 2, 1990
The Omni

Check out 3/28/90 if you like this one. The immediate preceding version, it’s just a little sharper to my ears.
Terrapin Station
Dec. 28, 1980
Oakland Auditorium

A strong outro and, especially, a charming ambient jam into Drums make this version a keeper.
