I think this version should be listened to in comparison to the one right before on 3/27/88. I prefer this one. Road Trips vs. Download Series

Spring 1990 was a magical tour but this version is absolutely great and I think better than 3/24/90

You can make an argument that this is the best version ever. I think it helped that Jerry was playing this tune so often with JGB. Anyway, he knows the lyrics and rips on the solos and the rest of the band is right there with him.

I have been going back and forth between 8/27/72 Veneta Ore. and 6/22/73 Pacific Northwest and now I think 09/27/72 could be perfect compromise between rock and jammy. The 09/27/72 is easily the equal of those two giants.

I have this one just above DP1 12.19.73 but they are my two favorites.
