A little extra mustard on this one.

Uniquely satisfying. Bob and Keith lock into a mind-meld that leads Jerry in some interesting directions.

Unique, trippy energy on the intro. Mellow vibes throughout.

Tight, inspired, and full of ideas. A stand-out version from a stand-out show.

Tight, hard-driving, and full of energy. A great rave up after some thoughtful somber passages before.

Jerry's vocals are very effective here in a somewhat understated way. This is an exceptionally clean reading that's right on the edge of definitive.

The Phil bombs are outrageous, and Bob plays a surprising little progression in the last solo break that takes the jam further than usual. Heady for sure.
