Working on a Heads mastodon instance with the Jerrybase crew...should be available this weekend I think
man, that moment in the 11/18/72 Playin in the Band where it calms down and it seems they're headed back to the theme, and then Billy hits that drumroll and they take off like a rocket. It feels like the whole year of stretching out this song builds up to that moment.
If anyone I know starts or is already running a head/music oriented masto server, I'll help mod it if you want the help. I'm good at that kind of thing. #gratefuldead #deadhead #bluegrass #phish #jazz #freak #psychedelicrock #gizzard #BillyStrings

This is it right here ... one of the ultimate Garcia licks. It encapsulates so much of his playing into a few seconds, the descending run with just the right amount of wah and then takes off like a rocket.
