Crowd responds to this version very favoribly so much so that both Lesh and Garcia say "Thank You" after it.

Yes, his voice on this makes this special. It has soul…he’s telling the story like he’s the one from Bigfoot County..Have this in the disc player in the truck and have been digging it extra special.

This should be sitting at #1...WAYYYY more soul than 10/7. 2/18 only sits at #2 because it's the first version.
