Great version of space, it's like a spanish jam with UJB teases.

This one grooves and slinks along. A chill head bobber. Segues into Terrapin.

Perfect Version. Jerry takes his time with it and nails the solo.

I love how the unique transition jam comes back up again later on in the show during the Estimated > Eyes transition.

Everytime this song comes up I always lament that this song could have been an amazing jam vehicle for the band. These short but jazzy '79 versions show why. I always wish the pre "Flight of the seabirds" jam was stretched out just a bit more.

Jerry really battles his guitar to get the solo out in this version. Lots of feedback problems. Jerry eventually prevails which makes for a cool version worthy of a listen.

Nice one, 2nd set scorcher.

This version is amazing. May be my new #1. I don't think Jerry's fingers could move any faster then they do here.
