Very strong outro jam. Jerry may have had shaky fingers but he really busted his ass to deliver here.

Jerry is absolutely dialed in, hot solo. Basically unknown show due to only AUDs avail.

Really beautiful version, Jerry clearly emotionally invested in the delivery. Great playing too despite the year. Worth a listen.

If you like this give a listen to 9/2/79, especially the 22 minute Let it Grow. Major brent solo.

“This couple they got married” sung for Phil - he just got hitched. He talks about this moment in his book when Jerry sang that line and looked over at him and tipped him a big wink ;)

Such a hot version. The last great version with Jerry's cleanest acoustic tone before he started sounding much worse (both in tone and his playing) in summer 94. They screw up the coda lick when they come back to it out of the end jam, and end up skipping it and jamming it into space! Really unique and well-explored.

Perfect fully contained version. Donna never sounded better.

Really needs a lot more love. This version is as groovy as they come. Slow works great here and Jerry is super into it. I've been feeling recently that Egypt got a bum rap and this Iko makes me think I'm right.
