Another hot and jam filled Truckin from 1972, nice an exploratory version. Very high energy and quick pace.

Absolutely crazy interplay between JG and Weir throwin' slide action down after the drop. They're havin fun and the tasty licks testify. HEADY!

Unforgivable that you guys overlook Truckin'. There's a reason it's the one song non-heads know. This one is a forgotten colossus. Listen up.

Rocking. Used on the soundrack of the movie "The Music Never Stopped."

Truckin'->Drums->The Other One->Spanish Jam->I know you rider. 1973 Magic pure good ol' grateful dead.

Great version, Jerry on fire especially during the outro

Long journey. Jer moves out of the nebulae toward HCS around 10:50, but the cosmos moved into Playin' instead. Epic indeed.

Inventive and crystal clear jam, leading into a 'nobody's fault' jam and a killer TOO>MLB where the '74 sound is just taking shape. Underappreciated.
12
Swingin' and groovin'...Phil takes charge on forgotten first verse..Bob drops an f-bomb but seems to censor himself on "ain't it a shame" line. Funny

REAL nice bluesy leads

Killer

Ballsy and rockin with great energy, flows from HCS and then seamless into a great TOO. It's what's great about Truckin.

A groovin' version with a killer jam at the end that fades into a great Wharf Rat.
