Great version that comes out of Space. Sounds like they are jamming on an ABB song throughout. Surprised this one hasn't been mentioned yet.

Has all the right dynamics in this version. This is a good one!

This version is cool, a lot different to the version that opened 9/2. This version is a lot looser and stretched out. Seamless segue into Dew at the end.

I'd play this version at a Grateful Dead dance party.

As nice of a Dew as you are going to hear from the late 80's. The single sour note it manages to end on does hurt it from being on the top of '87 Dews. Bummer.

Jerry forces the feedback to work for him. This results in a really cool guitar solo.
