Good version to kick off a highlight year for this song. One of the best covers they did.

Pretty good for the first version, Jerry's either low in the mix or not really picked up on the song like he did later.

Nice segue in from the deep Truckin' Jam. There's a lot packed into this fairly short version. One of the best GD tunes!

Not perfect but a little more in tune than most 1970 versions.

Good Jerry solo to spice up this basic song.

Underrated song, should have never been shelved. This is a good one,.
Cryptical Envelopment

Fillmore West

This is so good, it should get more credit. It really struck me how the Cryptical Reprise was more jammed out and exploratory than the TOO itself.

Love the pedal steel, and agree with the comments on Phil's backing vocals, they are real nice here.

Just an amazing version, hits a big peak with Jerry and Phil really taking the lead.

Keith adds some thoughtful work under the bridge.
