Jam chart entries
A Song I Heard the Ocean Sing

Vocal calisthenics give way at first to thoughtful and melodic play morphing quickly to an exceptionally groove driven thumper that begs for dancing. Aggressive leads strut with swagger over a thick bed of funky rhythm that decays into a hazy stew, regaining some drive before > to "Light". Excellent.

Versions phish.net's jam charts single out as noteworthy.
