Stunningly beautiful version. Jerry's solo is second to none.

Wow, this version pretty much has it all; aggression, melody, and weirdness galore. Phil and Jerry are just huge here.

Garica is amped! Some intense jamming before the 1st verse even. Great AUD for '69 too.

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!
