Talk about a sleeper...along with the "PITB" before it, this is probably the last time the Grateful Dead really went the distance in terms of jamming.

Searing work from Brent in a typically strong 1989 version. Surprised this was represented from a legendary show.

Creepy crawly version with lots of different themes and moods just like all good Spaces.

Not exceptionally long but still a very good version. Phil's great here.

This version is incendiary. Good chawed vocals from Bob and Murray and Cotton add great energy.

This version smokes. This was one number where Vince usually killed it.
Samba In The Rain

Madison Square Garden

Good version of a shit song. When 1994 was on, it was on. Too bad the lows are just as frequent and potent.

This and the Dave Murray version really made me take notice of this song. Not a particularly showy number, but very lovely. Great song.

Supreme version. Best of 1994, and that was a great year for this gem.
