This is a great one, from a great show. However, the end solo could be longer, which is why 10-29 is better....but this is up there

This has no Garcia leads after the third verse (all Lesh). It is still one of the best versions ever, particularly the between verse leads are long and powerful.

One of the best one-solo versions. See also 1973-02-22. But Fall 80 and after were another level for this song.

I'm not sure why 11-6 i ranked above this, good as it is. I'm REALLY not sure why Englishtown is, it's not even in the same league. The arpeggiated peak before Rio Grande-io is unique and stunning.
He's Gone

This is amazing save for the fact that there is no post-vocal jam (very short jam but clearly not on He's Gone exactly, sort of a real brief pre-TOO jam). Middle solo section is sublime.
