Probably should be represented, Jerry seems to remember the words which sets it a cut above right there; small cut though

Beautiful solo; all else being equal that's what matters most...

Garcia's lead is FURIOUS

I often skip these early ones, but when you pay attention they can be mesmerizing--every instrument plays a unique part, Jerry sings the hell out of it, and Pigpen's organ adds a lot here
Mister Charlie

Incredible. And if you pay attention, I'm not sure Jerry's main lick is the same on any two of these...
The Other One
May 7, 1972
Bickershaw Festival

Gosh, fellers, I don't see how someone could say this tops May 10th!
He's Gone
May 10, 1972
Concertgebouw

I wouldn't say any version prior to 1972-09-09 or subsequent to the hiatus is the 'best ever'! Plus there are overdubs on this unless you've got a two-track version... Pretty nice though
