Jerry unleashes an incredible torrent of notes with about a minute to go in this one. Beautiful opening as well.

They play this like a super-swung Ramble On Rose!

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

In addition to everything already mentioned, Jerry’s vocals on Rider are incredible! Sounding like 1970 at times.
