Fillmore West

Excellent stand-alone version, Jerry plays and sings a perfect tempo. Beautiful version, ethereal to say the least.

Middle of the road show at best, but this Black Peter portrays a certain beautiful somber joy that just clicks along with the very slow tempo

Garcia plummets deep to the final climax, a fairly quick but power packed rendition

Chuck Berry would be proud. Blistering leads by Garcia, and an all together sick version of a song I normally tend to ignore.
