Wow Jerry gives every single word a little extra attention, dialed in a very emotional reading. Brent is fantastic on this version. A classic take.

I can not possibly say enough positives about this version, if you have not heard it yet, run to archives and listen ASAP.

Unbelivably confident debut of one of if not their best tune.

Beautiful version from the movie, always one of my favorites, i believe it was also played at the Garcia memorial, chosen by Dick Latvala.

Wow truly heady, not quite as good as the june 1974 versions but this is up there. A true masterpiece, long and funky. Nice Brent and Jerry interaction with a nice amount of Phil.
