Jeff’s Playlist: Europe ’72 — Morning Dew

Europe ’72 — The Grateful Dead — “Morning Dew” (Live at the Lyceum Theatre, London, England 5/26/72)

This week, I’m con­tin­u­ing with long songs I have enjoyed over the years.

On the orig­i­nal album Europe ’72, “Morning Dew” had a few lead-in songs includ­ing “Trucking,” “Epilogue,” and “Prelude,” a total of about 26 min­utes of music before “Morning Dew.” This made for quite a long lis­ten. Here I am only pre­sent­ing “Morning Dew.” This is a great song. I think you’ll like it too.
