Hot version! Not quite as epic as the night after, but still incredible.

An absolute tsunami, one of the most intense ever this side of 3/2/69

A particularly jazzy version; Jerry is ablaze and climbing to enormous heights.

Very long and spacy version that gets very intense. One of the best of Europe '72.

Playin' In The Band
May 21, 1974
Edmundson Pavilion

I dig this one a lot. I don't think it's the best Playin' despite its length, but there are some awesome segments that will definitely keep me coming back. The jamming right around the 30 min. mark, for example, is especially wicked!

Jerry's tone is very crunchy and distorted at times...he repeats a wild Main Ten-like figure during the jam that gets really intense. Love it!
