The jam in this take blazes hotter than most any other - Jer throws an Eww! in there for good measure.

2nd half of a double encore - listen to Jerry's unique phrasing so different then later versions.

JG beams out killer tones while Phil crushes heads in the People's Repbulic.

Ragged in that good ol' GD way of well shit let's take a shot at this one... sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. Doobie Brent showin' up with Bobby's shroomed out rhythm stylings and Jerry almost pulling the lyrics off makes me smile but then these were "my years" so I'm partial. I had this tape a week later and loved it - so much so I went to the Syracuse show the next year.

Still love this version with Bobby channeling Dylan’s vocal delivery and then becoming more and more unhinged as the band blasts away. Go Bobby Go!
