Brent lends the transition jam a relaxed fusion vibe. Dreamlike, but doesn't lose precision.

Dick's Picks 30. Band is about to leave for Europe and gives a preview of the tour's signature jam style. Astonishing.

A thing of beauty like all the big jams from this tour, this one's every bit as moody and introspective as freaky and paranoid.

Coliseum Arena

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

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.

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