One of the longest and best. Other One teases and lots of spacey interplay.

3 excellent Garcia solos, instead of the usuall 2. A perfect way to close out this legendary 2nd set!

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.
