Worth a mention. It has a good pace, and nice soloing.

Lovely version, the crowd is engaged, and Jerry delivers a perfectly patient sweet solo to end it.

This one is a very in your face rager. Great energy!

Jerry's fingers flying in this version. Love '82 Bird Songs!

This version is good not great. It has that thing where Jerry really muffs the vocals so he kills it during the guitar solo. Jimmy's during the 80's seemed to have that occur somewhat frequently.

This version rages hard! Jerry's fingers could still fly in '85.

This is really good! Nice flow to the jam.

This version actually has a lot going on. The mid jam is wonderful and the pre drums jam is solid.

Let's be honest here. This version sucks.
