Sneaky, searching solo is worth a listen.

Jerry and Bobby are great here. Burning.

Easily the best version of this song I've ever heard. Listen to how Jerry sings!

If shows with great sounding SBs are overrated, the opposite is true. Jerry is burning this night and his solo here is spectacular.

The peak from Jerry and Bobby in the coda is very intense.

This PITB won't change your life like it did Bman's but it has great playing from Bobby and Brent.

It's not a complicated tune and yet Jerry loses the form several times. Not likely to endear Deadheads to this new addition. It is amusing to hear him get pissed and play power chords tho.

Bobby decides to take a completely new approach to this tune here and it's awesome.

Bobby has a very good idea singing Wang Dang Doodle over this.
