As far as these pre-August 74 versions go, pretty darn good; certainly far better than Veneta

Not the all-time best but surely deserves to be on the list

This turns into one heck of a jim dandy jam

This is a great version. I would personally place 5-4 and 5-9-77 above it.

I'm not always wild about this in 1976 but this one seems to deliver

This is great, to me it's mostly about the end jam, the song part is OK. Very fast version. jack_a_straw, I feel the exact same way--the jam sounds like something else (non-Dead) but I can't put my finger on it
