When I hear this I see the spinners. Great version filled with bounce

This is an amazing piece...it is art. I preferred the 1974 versions until I heard this one. Amazing, thoughtful, articulate.

Smoking and seriously hot barn burner. It's that good

I don't like 1993 Grateful Dead. I saw this and thought it would be terrible. But honestly, it sounds good. Its a good version...they sound pretty good. I still don't like 1993 Grateful Dead, but this isn't so bad.

Normally skip this song. But this one is good, and Jerry has a great tone for this show.

I'm in a place where I really prefer the post-coma 1986-1991 Black Peter's. But this one jumped out at me. Get the aud or a matrix. This is a really good one.

Never really cared for the later versions. But this one seriously cooks on all cylinders. All the cooks in the kitchen make this story roar off the stage. Listen!

At first it sounded like an average 1980's version, but Jerry gets inspired on the last solo and raises the energy notch. Good stuff.
