studio version of first Garcia.... the greatest GD sin that it was never performed live until 1976 (and sadly re-arranged)...

Yes....literally THE song that got me into the Grateful Dead. the beginning fade-in washed over me like a bath of golden light. "wow, I have never heard anything like this before"...and the rest is history. long live Skullfuck!

I agree with the assessments about this song and The Wheel. these studio versions are arranged differently than how they were performed live. Along with Franklin's Tower, too. Is Cassidy arranged differently as well? thanks for the beautiful song, Lesh & Hunter....
