Billy's doing some interesting stuff on the drums here! And excellent solo from Jer! Vocals too!

74 versions really captured the western tone well. Short and sweet.

Jerry calls for Bertha then proceed to royally flub the lyrics LOL. Solid bouncy version though.

Phil and Brent really escalate the dance party factor of this tune in later years. Great performance this night. Just sheer fun. Comes to awk end.

Jumps right into Johnny B Goode. Good little dance party to end a fine Anchorage show.

FIERY jamming! Garcia came in blazing and Brent is elevating the hell out of this tune here. Then punch after punch until the tune rolls to a close and the crowd goes wild! Upvote from me. Leads into drums.

You rarely hear Jerry stick so close to the motifs and melody of a tune throughout like this. He pulls it off. True to form indeed. But beautiful. Also solid vocals. He was feeling it this night in Alaska.
