Jerry and Pigpen sing together in this one, and they brought the passion!

High intensity, coming in hot after a hot Caboose jam.

Powerful version. The vocal entrance at the end brings the house down, you can tell they're having fun; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gjjkcVIoys

Bob goes for it in the rap and Garcia smiles a bit. A fun latter day version, though it never jams out like mad. Video of it here! https://www.youtube

Cumberland Blues
Sept. 21, 1972
The Spectrum

After the first verse, when Jerry does his bending solo thingy, Bob, Phil and Bill simultaneously lock into what i believe to be the most pure Cumberland groove ever. This one is note-perfect indeed. This one is a little more out of control than the 4/8 one, and hey, that's what we like about Cumberland right?)

Dead always nailed the September months of each year. Amazing jamming here, you can tell they loved every second of it.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Chateau d'Herouville

If Bobby was in tune, this would be one of the all-time greats. I love this version, but god damn does Bobby make it sour at times.
