Awesome version. Listen to Jerry from the start and especially his solo (and Phil). This spring tour comes to life right here.

50 years ago today. Every moment of this incredible version is seared into my brain. What they play at 16:00 for exactly 1 minute kills me every time.

Speaking of outro jams, this one is worth a listen. Jerry full of ideas, Bobby pushing him along. You can skip right to it tho.

Red Rocks Ampitheatre

Long, quiet, melancholy version. Great Jerry/Keith interplay.

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Agree with bike guy that this should be at least as high as the band was. Jerry's solo before SSDD is mindbending.

Great version at the end of an amazing 2nd set sequence. Love what Bobby plays at the end, and Jerry throughout.
