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.

Nice but I really wish I understood why this is voted #1. It's consistent and conservative where, in my view, a Terrapin should be searching and soaring

I’ve listened to this version so many times. Gorgeous for sure. Just never understood why it’s voted #1. Hasn’t ever quite latched me in like some of the others voted on a little further down the list. 6/26/74, 11/2/77, 4/29/71, and 11/6/77, 4/6/82 come to mind.

Not the best. Doesn’t quite the capture the feeling of this song. But Lordy this version is something special. That last jam is incredible!
