WTH! Hot as shit! Most versions in this time period are 8 mins, but there’s almost a full minute worth of extra jamminess! Heady!

The best one. The ending jam is incredible! The definitive version.

Just relistened to this version for the umpteenth time, wanting to prove myself wrong. For the life of me, I cannot hear what everyone else hears. Take for instance 6/21/80, right off the bat the band is firing, fast fast fast. Everyone talks about Brent on this date, but he was even more on in Alaska, and so was Jerry. This is a laggard performance in comparison. If you don’t believe me, listen to the difference!!! This date does not deserve the hype it gets.
