Drums -> Space

Silva Hall at the Hult Center

A low key Drums leads to a Space that I've heard others (accurately) describe as "dark" and "weird"

A nice version but I love the jam that bridges PITB with this

Not a raucous version like 12/26 but still quite groovy, w/ heavy Phil bass

Hippodrome

This isn't a monster like 5/8/77 but it's a sweet mellower version w/ a hot ending.

Mexicali Blues

Golden Hall, Community Concourse

This can also be described as a bouncy version. There's some quality guitar and organ action.

The Music Never Stopped
July 7, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

At times this version sounds a little different than usual for the song. But that doesn't mean it's not a nice or cool version of the tune. The second half breakdown was pretty swell.

I do agree with the commenter that mentioned how Jerry delivered a quality jam to end the song. It's a nice solid rendition from beginning to its conclusion.

As they say in the song itself, "Ooh, good God!" This is a great version of the song. The opening 3:30 or so is sweet on its own, but after that when they jam and it builds up and up... tremendous.
