Really dark sounding jam dominated by Phil and Jerry. Some unique, jazzy soloing from Jerry too.

Wild, hairy, and at times scary Herbie Hancock-esque jazz in this one. One of the all-time best!!!

The per-verse jam is some of the most transcendentally beautiful playing I've ever heard on this song... Garcia is just perfect!!!

Love this laid-back jazzy version. Classic, ultra-chill performance all around.

I'm not a big fan of the "horns shows" but I do dig this one. The best version with horns by far is 9/11/73 IMO.
