This one is the sound of a band that knows it can do pretty much anything. Smooth and fiery.

You a Caps fan, too? Wild game! And a wild show.

Overlook this show at yr peril - this fiery Other One is just another unique flavor of some top sleeve Dead. For all the great stuff in this show, this is a high point.

Don't think is really short -- right in line for DS durations at that time. They started to get longer (N or 20 min) a couple of weeks later. This variety is dense - the SG crunching away. Effortlessly graceful.

Another killer re-visit! Garcia's obviously the Cap'n here - and the group grants his every whim. I think I heard Lesh go, "My liege . . ." Rightfully.

Lesh leads the way with the redwood. You got that - most things just have a way of falling into place. But the whole group is in high-test form.
