Overall, Im not a huge fan of this song, but this version is very nicely played. Heady

Man, this one is chilling. Will give you goose bumps and bring you to tears all at the same time. This and OR '93 belong on a shelf of their own

Thanks for your diligent prompts, cgarces. This one is pure magic, cover to cover. Everyone is so locked in. Love the late era magic. This one is peak level output

Listening to this again for the first time after not spinning for a while. Arguably not the "best" version, though there was definitely an X factor for this one. The jam is super percussive, Jerry is shredding like a dog off the leash, and Bobby sounds like he is going to physically attack the microphone he is so aggressive on vocals. Very heady
