Jerry and Pigpen sing together in this one, and they brought the passion!

High intensity, coming in hot after a hot Caboose jam.

Powerful version. The vocal entrance at the end brings the house down, you can tell they're having fun; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gjjkcVIoys

Bob goes for it in the rap and Garcia smiles a bit. A fun latter day version, though it never jams out like mad. Video of it here! https://www.youtube

Nothing the Dead ever played hits me as hard as this does. You really notice in their playing that they think "this could be the last time we play this together." I really love this version, so elegant and creative in it's passages in this gorgeous and beautiful Dark Star. Total bliss. Did i mention i adore this version?
