This is the unheralded version. The whole show is like chamber music. This is the best TJ solo Jerry ever played. It is incredibly well conceived.

Jerry sounds like Charlie Christian in the jam--swinging, boppy, fantastic.
He's Gone

Shrine Auditorium

I am a huge fan of He's Gone, and a huge fan of this version. The solo is letter perfect, singular, musical, wonderful. And the jam out into the Other One is jazzy, angular, and Phil is awesome. Comes a Time...what else is there to say? One of the great second sets of post-1975 Dead. Great pick!
