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 .

Hot fast paced rocker to close out the set on the 4th. Speedy but still jam packed

The best, the tension builds to double before the release. This is absolutely my favorite version, just when you think they will release the tension Jerry doubles it, incredible powerful psychedelic beauty. A true powerhouse and deserves way more up votes.

Jerry could still muster the energy to bring it every know and then in 1995. This is a shining example. Fabulous Playing and singing. Every version is hot in 1995, but this is the best.
