China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Very nice one indeed. This whole show is overlooked! I think it's the best of the three between Rotterdam and the Lyceum run by a significant margin, which isn't to say that Lille and Luxembourg aren't also very good...

A tad slower than the other E72 versions, which lends it a nice, mellow vibe. Pig fills this one out nicely.

Perhaps being in that neck of the woods contributed to this one being extra sweet...

What Jerry is playing starting around the 6:30 mark sounds like rain drops falling...gorgeous version from an all-time great show.

TLEO ranks in my top 20 favourite Dead tunes...I usually prefer the fast '73 versions, but I love this slower one! Best night of '77
