Part of a rare double encore, this version has great energy and bounce. The Brokedown to follow is nice as well. Check out the Oade Brothers AUD.

Really cool pre-drums jam in this version. Almost sounds like they are about to go into I Know You Rider.

It's a fine version and all but the cool little Jerry noodle just before Drums is the real reason to seek this version out.

Featured on day 8 of the 2018 iteration of 30 days of Dead. A very intense and dancy version. I actual was quite enjoying Vince's input to this version. He does a bunch of cool "latinish" fills in this one. Phil drives this one hard too.

Louisiana State U

Albeit on the shorter side, this version contains a really cool and unique segue into Good Lovin'. Worth checking out.

This version really brings me to that place. Checks all the right boxes. Perfect.

This one cooks, should be much higher in the list.

This one crashes along. Lots of Brent too.
