Among the versions I've heard this is my favorite, and I also think the cleanest version.

Good Morning Little Schoolgirl
Aug. 22, 1987
Calveras County Fairgrounds

Besides the fact they played this for the first time since '70, the performance features the unmistakable guitar playing of guest Carlos Santana.

Sandstone Amphitheatre

This is a quality 90's version of the trio of songs, and it happens to be a long half hour version too.

Activity Center. Arizona State U

A solid rendition of the song. The band (especially Jerry) is on fire during the breakdown.

I also really dig this version. It makes me feel like I am actually on a cosmic journey.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 3, 1979
Market Square Arena

I do happen to like Phil sounding loud and rockin' the bass on the only version of that performance out there. It's also a nice performance overall.

The Spectrum

This is a pretty nice version of the song, and what a great second half.
Dupree's Diamond Blues
Nov. 4, 1977
Cotterell Gym - Colgate University

This is a nice slower rendition of the tune.
The Other One

San Antonio Civic Auditorium

I had no idea of this version until I stumbled upon it. Just finishing listening to the tune, it is a pretty nice rendition so it got a vote from me too.
