[4] Light Into Ashes blogger describes this MLB jam: "They ease into this one a little uncertainly, so it's a rather loose and playful version, not as emotive. Garcia plays a waspy slide while Godchaux clatters around on the Fender Rhodes, and they segue smoothly into Wharf Rat." I'd also add that this one has a "bluesy" feel to it, following up on the Nobody's Fautl Jam theme.
