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.

Really sweet version, especially for a debut! Love the segue into Stella Blue.

The overall show is just ok, but the 1st set opening sequence is worth checking out.

Yep, this one definitely should be closer to the top. Excellent version!
Desolation Row

One of my favorites. Jerry teases "Auld Lang Syne" during his solo after the ". . .playing the electric violin on Desolation Row" lyric about mid way through the song. It's a really cool solo.

Jerry hits all the right notes, this is a nice version. Needs more love.
