Played with a pace - the entire band locks in for Jerry’s sky ladder climb.

Oh this one is so loosely tight. Newly debuted and deserving of attention - delicious.

No high peaks but JG's playing is just fluttering in the wind.

Good '71 medicine here. One of my favorite years for just how dangerous they...feel. The cosmic voyages within this year appeal to me more than many of the later years. Check 11.14 and the ride into MAMU - yeehaw.

With almost a ‘50’s vibe happening at certain points this one is soooo tasty and satisfying with Jerry in the zone.

One of those versions where the whole band goes fully HAM together- energy abounds. Tks DS - we have similar taste. And yeah, that silde back into NFA is special.

House band at the Ok Corral right here - and an encore verison! Jerry is hollerin' and FEELIN' it....great Keith showcase. I came for the GDTRFB (why? cause it's dirrrty good) and stayed for the Rose. Not nearly one of my fav tunes ( I much prefer BEW) but this version cannot be denied.

ummmm this is NOT one of those Bertha's where Jerry's running for his life in and out of danger - this is Jerry and his band skipping through the sunlight laughing in the sunshine oh my....
