Pig comes alive during this song as well as this entire show, and Jerry respond's to his energy level, as does the whole band. I love this show!

Pigs vocals and harmonica are at a high and energetic level on this version. Jerry's guitar playing is a must listen, really!

This is a high energy and very well played version of this song. Bobby is in very good form here.

Good St. Stephen, sanwiched between D.S and The Eleven. Classic Pyhicedelia in the heart of Utah!

from what I can gather on the archive, this is the very first show to used a new guitar intro. This is the intro the band used from then on and the version that most heads know. I actually prefer the original intro, but by 69 they've slowed the song down, and that works better for me.

The archive has this labeled as Winterland. Wherever it was, it cooks!

Jerry was getting the definitive guitar tone for this song. He must have pulled out one of his strats for this one. This is very good version of this song and a good recording.
