Just absolutely perfect is all. After 43 years of Dead listening, this went by the wayside sometimes but these days I recognize it is one of their best songs, and the end jam is marvelous almost 100% of the time in this era. And many eras.

Magnificent version, wonderfully exemplifies Garcia's relatively laconic playing and singing in this era of the song

Also Garcia is not very sloppy here, relative to how he usually is when he gets "shreddy!" Very well-played music on this sucker.

Sorry, the site's glitching out today. I'll try to replace the duplicates with content. Over 14 minutes, and the poster who used the word "incendiary" above certainly used it aptly

Not the best version ever, but definitely the best and most effective "shreddy" version ever, and Jerry nails the transitions
