Billy's doing some interesting stuff on the drums here! And excellent solo from Jer! Vocals too!

74 versions really captured the western tone well. Short and sweet.

Jerry calls for Bertha then proceed to royally flub the lyrics LOL. Solid bouncy version though.

Phil and Brent really escalate the dance party factor of this tune in later years. Great performance this night. Just sheer fun. Comes to awk end.

Gets freaky. Awesome. Garcia lays some brutal lines. Imagine seeing this live in '67. Crowd must've been flipping out. What a smashterpiece

Nice and easy with a certain heaviness to it that comes mainly from Garcia & Lesh.

I absolutely love the late 80s, especially the Shakedowns. I hear exactly what Bobby is talking about when he said they were reading each other’s minds, and he says this was, in his opinion, their peak. This Shakedown is a beast.
