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

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.

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

Chuck Berry would be proud. Blistering leads by Garcia, and an all together sick version of a song I normally tend to ignore.
