Yeah, there's a fire on the mountain alright. I'm out the door and more than ablaze. Thanks, Grateful Dead.

Hits the spot -- and then some.

Check out the Phil groove on this one, folks. And there’s a vid. Sure, I’ll give it a second vote to keep the other one company, but this being Summer ’89, I can see a lot more heads joining in here.

Love the way these later stand-alones are unleashed and run where they will – this one building to a rousing stomp and ready for more. Long-time favorite with signature Phil slides, it’s easy to see this one hangin’ up in the lead pack.
