A bit overlooked for summer '74, this version is one of the very best. Jerry's cool tone has a lot of bite!

First ever SJ, and possibly my new favorite! This incredible jam just keeps building and does not let up once for the entire 16 minutes!

Yes! One of the great lesser-known versions from '72.

Wow this one really moved up! Nice to see it near the top where it deserves to be :)

Great pre verse jams on this one...very jazzy. The post verse tiger/space gets pretty nuts.

Amazing, the post verse jams are some of the wildest and trippiest of all time...Keith and Jerry wail!!!
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

William and Mary College Hall

A beautiful, jazzy, and mellow rendition with a nice unique intro by Jerry. Love how fresh they kept this song in this era.
