JGB version off of Let It Rock vol. 2. Absolutely beautiful keys from Nicky Hopkins and jerry is melodic and sped up compared to the FOTD's that

Hands down the best FOTD I ever saw. Garcia's playing is intricate, beautiful, and stunning.

Nice, mellow version.

Brilliant early "slow version". I always prefered the desperado fast-paced ones, but this turns into a brilliant exploration and improv vehicle.

Jerry and John Kahn awesome “members only” show!

Always preferred the fast ones, but listening to Jerry rip up the solos here and it makes sense. Killer version here (with a rude AUD patch though).

Best Brent solo I've ever heard on this tune. Jerry follows up in style.

Nice and slow. Some sweet harmonies that really accentuate the emotion of the song.

Boys catch fire on LRR, the cool down is FOTD and it's up to par with most late 80s versions. Brent's keys are the highlight here.

Not perfect, but another ‘77 outlaw groove that’s sweet. Solo touches the clouds.
