Jerry's in primal Viola Lee mode more than per country twang.

What an ending jam. Jerry improvises astonishing structures with ease and fluency. The others are right there with him.

Jerry's solo is so articulate -- immaculately constructed. Some very fine stuff.

Do not overlook this version. Equals or surpasses the other versions from '89-'91. Incredible molten jam.

Boston Music Hall

I couldn't believe how good this version is. Can sometimes take or leave the song, but this is INCREDIBLE.

Tight, melodic, lovely. This one really grabbed my attention.

No kidding! Thunderous, yet melodic. Try it -- you'll like it.

Fillmore East (Late Show)

Good version, but I believe it's played electric.
