Jerry's in primal Viola Lee mode more than per country twang.

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.

Ah, the Download Series Vol. 10 version is actually filler from 7/22. Great in any case!

^^ What Grendel said. I’m truly not certain if I’ve heard a better version of this song from ’77.
