Great Year, Great Tour, Great Show, Great Song. Tight as fuck version following a china cat tease.

Community War Memorial Auditorium

One of the tightest versions I have ever heard. I would place this towards the top. Jerry is in the zone, this really is a killer version. No lies.

They really bring the hammer down on this one. Tight and hot version, the drummers especially lead the breakdown into the witchita line perfectly

Definitely overlooked because of the monster that came the night after, but in fact this is a really hot version.

Winterland Arena

High energy Drums < Jam. The drums are awesome with some fantastic energy, but the real highlight is this unbelievable jam following the drums.

Sick, lighting quick, ferocious, and off the fricken' chain!

Freedom, check out 5/1/81. It's one of the best shows of 1981 and the entire Brent era.

Greek Theater - University of California

Cgarces, I agree this is a great song, and this version is especially good. I love when Garcia pulls a twist and adds a little JGB to the Grateful Dead sets.

Salt Palace

Emotive, and my favorite live version. Obviously, however, studio cant be beat.
