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.

Compton Terrace Amphitheatre

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.

Ramble On Rose
March 9, 1981
Madison Square Garden

Fantastic solo. Cutting, percussive, angry. The riff he plays at the beginning of the second chorus is a monster. Then it's quieter, melodic, settling in triplets until, big surprise, Jerry remembers the words to the Crazy Otto verse.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo

Boston Garden

Yeah the last jam is crazy, crazy, crazy great. What Phil and Bobby are doing, wow.
New Minglewood Blues
May 7, 1977
Boston Garden

Keith killing it
Cassidy

Boston Garden

Jerry comes out swinging right away in the jam. It's short but beautiful, with structure and balance like a composition
Eyes Of The World
May 3, 1977
The Palladium

Jerry is flying and his tone sounds amazing in this aud. Piles of ideas. And it's unusual to hear him play completely unaccompanied as he does into Wharf Rat
