    Jam chart"Ocelot" might be '24's surprise song; press play, here, to hear why. Patient and introspective, Trey shuns anything by way of ham-fisted (re: distracting) vocal delivery to, following super Mike and Fish, meander in a near "Meat"-like fashion. Trey shows restraint and walks away - such are his lines - from such sentiment, his soloing, with (or against) Page's high-register play, delivering a legit first-set highlight.

    Jam chartA sparkling, vital version which builds with great focus and energy, at times sounding more like "Roggae" than your typical "Ocelot".

    Jam chartThis jam takes off around six minutes in, when Trey's soaring play, Fish's fills, Mike's thundering bass and Page's impressive play all coalesce to give this version an unusually fierce ending.

    Jam chartOne has argued it's not the wind, but, rather, the trees that create the breeze. Here, Trey as tree, drives an airy, guitar-driven jam that moves effortlessly across sea and sand. Fish, solidly in the pocket, anchors the band as the four take the song for another deceptively simple ride before, as if a wave, breaking for "Fluffhead."

    Jam chartAnother quality Summer 2018 version, diving into murky waters thanks to Mike's fine work and Trey going to work with his effects, with a more explosive and just as satisfying peak as Tahoe's.

    Jam chartForgoes the usual bluesy Ocelet jam for a slower, dreamier jam (thanks to some superb work from Page) that builds to a low-key, satisfying peak and then rolls back into "Ocelot" proper to close.

    Jam chartGiven that the "Heavy Things" after this version features a "Happy Birthday" tease, playing "Ocelot" wasn't the most overt "nod to Jer" on Jerry Garcia's birthday the summer Trey moonlighted at Fare Thee Well, but it is the most musically impressive. The word most associated with this version of the song is 'slinky'. In one more tribute to the Dead, the band takes almost three minutes before starting "Heavy Things."
