Rider ! - Cassidy - Big Railroad Blues - and Esau ! take the Cake on the 1st Set.  But then ... Whoa !?!!  That Set II - Love it !  Scarlet > Bucket !!!!!! to open the Set !  So hot.  Ace just Steers it ! - then Garcia's on Board !!!  Blammmmo !  Then - oh man ... out of Space ?  You've got a silky-smooth Spanish Jam that eases its way out of Space ! > then Truckin' ( power-style ! ) > then ... the Smokestack ! - and Wow are we talking Smokestack-Lightning !  Even Lightning Hopkins himself, might tip his cap to Ace in that Pink Izod !  Go Bobby !!  And then this ... into a tight Black Peter ( tight in a good way - Solo !! ) > Sugar Magnolia !  Ace was hot on this one, and Garcia kept on lobbing him softballs to just Crush !  This is my kind of G.D. !!!!  Baby Blue Encore, and that is all she wrote.  Mean-Night ! for the Boys ... and a nice-bright " Yellow !
