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

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

Great rec, this version definitely kicks major ass. One of my favorite '78s.

This is the infamous "Washoe zephyr" show but they are definitely ON for this number!!! Like Keith's piano work going into the jam and Garcia is just burning as brightly as that headlight...
