Probably a "misdated" Dew, but no matter; this early version is as emotive as it gets

I usually prefer the China>Rider combo but this is a must hear version; Jerry really pours on the HEAT between the verses!!

I like this one, and all my faves are in '68-'72 - that should say something!

Best of 1970? gives 2/13 a run for its moo-la, IMO
