Strong Phil and great vocals version. Just so tight throughout. Triumphant version as the pre-end-jam-era versions go.

The band builds it up beautifully to the "Won't you tell everyone you meet" verse.

Out fkn standing. It just is. The whole song. Brent follow of Jerry in the mid-song solo makes me smile.

Loved Brent's vocals and organ on this song. I do feel that 12/26/79 is the best ever. Over the years this song seemed to always be consistently good.

No doubts. A beautiful version and it is the best. So very heartfelt and a great transition after the 3-headed monster that starts this 2nd set. Not sure why the song wasn't included on Built to Last or why it didn't stay in the lineup. Jerry had his reasons I'm sure.
