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 am not really a fan of this era, but this version is incredible. Patient build, beautiful execution. Such emotive playing

Yup, classic. My favorite (if forced to choose)

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

I scooped this show not too long ago. This version is certainly one of the most exploratory I know of. Jam gets dicey in the later minutes - she's a deep cut.

Yeah, this one definitely deserves dap. Haven't spun in a minute - holds up fantastically!
Greatest Story Ever Told

Yup, another hot version for a hot show
