Let's hear it. AND GET SPECIFIC! What is your favorite entry in the grateful dead catalogue? I didn't want to be too specific and say what's your favorite song...in other words, don't just tell me "Weather Report Suite", I wanna know which part..is it the prelude, the jam from Part I into LIG, the LIG outro jam?

For me, my favorite piece of GD music is the > in between Chinacat > Rider. I love 'em jazzy and full of Jerry-Bobby interplay. Check out the Winterland Chinacat > Rider from 2-24-1974 for the most brain exploding transition i've ever heard.

The jamming that comes after "and the whistle is screaming.......Terrapin!!".

I love a wild Spanish Jam or A nice Mind Left Body Jam out of a Terrapin.
Playin in the Band has a part in the Jam that's like a Ship sailing out to sea, I always loved a good Playin' Jam as well

I like the jam's used to connect the songs. Seems like it's a favorite with a lot of folks. Like "Slipknot". Those transitions seems
to really take you places, then bring you back. The pieces that hold the Terrapin suite together are very special.

kinda like asking what part of the blue sky do ya like?all of it

The second jam in Jack Straw is my favorite piece of Dead music. I loved the way it changed over the years. So many good jams...

Good calls so far..
my favorite is the jam out of Scarlet, honorable mention the jam after "rise and fall" in Let it Grow

big fan of whart rat just love the whole story from " i got no dime but i got some time .." The cresendo towards ill get up and fly away can be very spitually uplifting for me."i know that the life im living is no good "struck home awile back and this is a reminder to walk the true path

Love Althea...the jam part with the keys.. LOVE the "whooho" part in St. Stephen
