scooterpie was i not clear? garcia could do more with a slow murder ballad on his worst day than trey could dream of doing -- it's not his thing, though he's closer than ever -- and i'd be curious to hear how garcia would handle a reworking of 'show of life.' if he could make goofy lyrics like 'terrapin' sound like a hymn, i bet he could lift SofL up.

agreed, and another thing, I have a sneaking suspicion that many more people enjoy listening to recorded Dead, i.e. old tapes sbds, etc, than old Phish just IMHO. I have been listening to the Dead for 25 years and am still blown away by the vast archive that is out there for this music. I am still discovering jems that I didn't even know existed, even from the "off years" such as 84-85. Are a substantial number of people listening to old Phish tapes from the early to mid 80"s? I have a hard time believing that it is but a fraction of those discovering still great Dead music from this era.
