Whoa, I can't believe this hasn't been submitted. Great vocal and four minutes of sublime outro solo. Check it out!

Phil is high in the mix. One of the best '71 versions, I believe.

I'm sorry, but please listen to 8/14 and compare Jerry's work on the two. This one seems to get the nod since it's embedded in the O1. But the Berkeley is better by far.

I really like that solo, and this whole second set has a distinctly country rock feel to it. If only Bob could rein in his screeches on Truckin' and Sugar Mag, this would make a nice disc, (or two-disc set if you include the first night).

I mean that. What I said below. Bouncy. Inspired. Definitive.
