Ras-Tafari !! That was divine intervention;reminds me of the one love peace concert during Marleys Jammin,when Bob united the two rival politicians Manley+Seaga onstage,theres a moment of insane Rasta energy and the almighty responds with Lightening...On this one its insane Dead synchronicity..Good call fellas.

This IS a nice Hes Gone indeed,from the 8/9 minute tight,fairly upbeat E72 versions-by the fall theyd started to stretch the arrangement and it shows here..Gorgeous outtro -summer meadows.
