Fine, soulful performance. Garcia sings "in a world time forgot" instead of "that guitars never caught." Alternate lyric they maybe wanted to put.

Nice but I really wish I understood why this is voted #1. It's consistent and conservative where, in my view, a Terrapin should be searching and soaring

I’ve listened to this version so many times. Gorgeous for sure. Just never understood why it’s voted #1. Hasn’t ever quite latched me in like some of the others voted on a little further down the list. 6/26/74, 11/2/77, 4/29/71, and 11/6/77, 4/6/82 come to mind.

Not the best. Doesn’t quite the capture the feeling of this song. But Lordy this version is something special. That last jam is incredible!
