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.

This just rocks surprisingly I like this better than the earlier versions. Fantastic jam lots of Keys and Jerry is smoking.

The ending part has a rather floydian feel to it. I was only recently turned on to this version and i have to say i freaking love it.

Leading out of a downright spooky Dark Star this drums space is amazing and inspired by the mayhem that preceded it. Hot stuff here.

Really enjoyed this show live, not quite as much as 5-26 but it was a beautiful evening and one of the last if not the last really listenable quality show.
