Some crisp, bluesy guitar from Jerry and hot vocals from Bob.

Jerry is all over the place with the lyrics, but Brent is playing his butt off.

Jerry starts it off by flubbing the lyrics, but it's well played after that.

The jam before SSDD, Jerry is in the lead, and slowly but surely, Brent takes over and the spotlight is on him.

Simple Twist Of Fate

Passionate and intense. If this was Jerry playing it with the Dead, people would love it.

I don't get it. The pace is sluggish, the guitar work uninspired. Yeah, they get into the final singalong, but overall this being the best one they ever played?

It sounds like the band is going to kill the song early, but Jerry and Keith push on to a rockin' finish.

Bad idea.
