Jerry sounds tired and pained here, which of course is perfect. For some reason he usually doesn't nail the solo in this tune but he does here.

There's an Eleven tease in the middle of the Other One tease at the end of this Space.

Huge version. Weird that it's not on here. Jerry is brilliant from the first note of the intro. Listen to him starting at 9:05. Brent great too.

Agree with Jort that the middle jam is great. I love the longer middle jams. This was a good year for that. It's confounding that they didn't always stretch out in this perfect modal space.

Fantastic version that deserves listens and votes. Very emotional solo, especially the false harmonics. And check out Jerry's vocalizing at the end!

Went to upvote a tune and what do you know, it's controversial. Surprised this is #3 but it is awesome. Brent is great on his part of the jam, then we go into some kind of narco-dream that turns into a nightmare and then burns up into a perfect transition to He's Gone.

Jerry's singing on the verses is powerful. Bobby, Phil and Brent are great throughout.
