Jerry and Phil kill this encore version

Pauley Pavilion

An undiscovered 01? This one has huge, crazy peaks by Jerry at 4:25 and Jerry and Bobby at 8:05. Madness, fits and starts, like any great O1.

Curious this isn't on here yet. One of Jerry's best solos ever. Notes disappear into nothing, then the next one digs and bites. Remarkable feeling.

You know a great version of this tune by the first four or five notes of Jerry's solo and this doesn't disappoint. Phil supports beautifully.

Jerry has that super emphatic, dynamic and expressive tone in his picking, especially in the coda.

It's fun when things go so completely off the rails that Jerry is suddenly soloing on different changes and they sing the wrong lyrics on the wrong chords. Bobby fucks this up so much. Jerry is sharp though.

Love the melody Phil plays at the end. He just invents a new tune. Wish everyone played along with it some more.

Greek Theatre, U. Of California

Jerry lays out crystal clear ideas in the jam, one after the other.
