Madison Square Garden

The Devils go totally tribal after they take this down to pin drop quiet and at the end JG cranks the rusty blade.

Bobby colors this one finely and Jer dishes the backup vocals and riffs perfectly - they nail the changes to make this one glow. (matrix)

A warm wash of sound with Garcia doing some vibrato on the vocal that makes it special and very sad indeed.

Bobby with that ropey rhythm while Phil is tightly tiptoeing for Jerry to deliver a slicing lead. Ooooof. Boys are hot tonight.

You’re right this one’s SPECIAL. Love Weir’s rhythm and filigree work here and Jerry carves a blistering solo for the ages then a BRUTAL CUT- separation on recording is beautiful for phones and requires heavy study of this whole show. Not sure how I’ve missed the depths of this show - Nov ‘72 is easily one of my all time favorite months in this band’s history.

Once heard this Shake will demand your vote - SLAPPIN’ is right!

One of the best Cassidy jams no one’s heard- whole band catches the groove and Jerry goes on a bender and stretches this one ouuuuuuuuuut.
