Keith is great on this one, but Donna sounds like an Alabaman Yoko, I'm sorry. I usually defend her but this one is rough IMO.

Necessary bridge between the madness that precedes it and the sweet We Bid You Goodnight that follows...smooth landing of the spaceship, even if it lets us off in the middle of Area 51 lol

This is the version that got me hooked on the song -- as a c. 2015 convert, I actually heard the Fillmore West 1969 compilation release before I heard Live/Dead (listening to the four complete shows for the first time as we speak). This Eleven still ranks very high for me, possibly #1.

It's the mellow, introverted little brother of the energetic, extroverted 2/27 version...two sides of the same coin almost.

Hell of a Cryptical on this one...wow! The rest is great too obviously.
