BOS #2 for Warren!  Hope he is enjoying his sandwiches in heaven.

ditto on both counts -- truly a great underappreciated LP all the way around.

BOS WZ.
He's doing a pretty credible Neil Young on this one, both in the sound of the song, and the guitar solo. I've never been fond of this, but I do always wanna hear Warren.

ETA: Well, never mind the imitation. It IS Neil on the geetar.

I'll take Classic Moreytrinas for $500, AL: "Hourglass".

Squeeze:  I ask you, is this any worse than 86-87 era Genesis?

I was a HUGE fan but Dave put me off this one for life -- he played it sixteen times, per the shraytabase.

I've always liked "Throwing Stones" especially if it gets played other than on Earth Day.  When I was in grad school at UCSB I had a really cool t-shirt that had the line from this song: "And the kids they dance and shake their bones" with Calvin & Hobbes dancing.

I like "Throwing Stones". This was a time in my life when I saw the Dead many times at Frost Amphitheater at Stanford. Good times. Though I do think it's a terrible guitar solo.

BOS #3 "Mandinka".  IIRC, Dave played this a couple times, but usually in the wrong year.

Sinead arrives with a Man-'trina (sorry, couldn't resist) VHM for her politics.
