Hot Jerry has one of those amazing piercing solos where the notes cut like a knife. This is beautiful and well sung some minor mic issues but Jerry +

As passionate as i have heard Jerry singing on this one, does make a vocal miscue but sings right through it instead of just starting to mumble .

This show and the shows before and after are amazing possibly the three best eyes ever and they are all in a row.

Definetly a hot version, this show seems like a giant party should have been mardi gras or chinese new years.

Sweet version, caught the crowd by sheer surprise, Garcia has a beautiful tone on his guitar throughout the whole song. Version from the 1970's NOT the Grateful dead, just contained some members. it was a NRPS set with some dead members sitting in. Not a grateful dead performance. So to me it was the breakout.

Minor vocal hiccups but hot jamming, seems to be the mo of this whole show.

This one definitely smokes, this show as a whole like this song has a few minor vocal miscues but the playing is hot throughout.
