SHOCKED this one wasn't mentioned yet. Even with the crushing cut out in the SBDs, this version still stands at the top

Very hot, tight jam segment. Song has the best lyric ever written: "Let your life proceed by it's own design"

By all accounts, this is a rather goofy song, but i love this version. Entire show is spot on

I will again implore the necessity of spinning this version. The Bobby/Jerry interplay at the end is some of the best, most unique I have heard. Leads into a top version, huge early peak Truckin'. Hard to get any better than this pairing

Pretty sweet version - FOTM bleeds nicely into a Stir it Up Jam
