Epic 11:09 Version. IMO one of Pigpen's best efforts of any song, Starts off slow and haunting building into a monster jam!

The transition from an inspired UJB is simply amazing. One could only dream to think what it was like in person. The first few notes take you to a magical place. Epic show from an epic month
