What an ending jam. Jerry improvises astonishing structures with ease and fluency. The others are right there with him.

Jerry's solo is so articulate -- immaculately constructed. Some very fine stuff.

Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

Swing Auditorium

One of those performances where you can hear how much they loved this song and how fun it is to play and sing.
