This shit was total lightning. Really high energy with the whole band being individuals together. Also, Jerry is fast as fuck on this one.

This version was waaay to spacy. I played it loud with people around and was embarrassed because it sounded like crashy noise! I like 10-25-69 much much better. A little spacy/random noise is great, but the whole song? Not sure how this one made it to #1 because there are many much better versions.

This version is overplayed.... Its literally just OK. Check out JGB 11-23-91 for an example of an out of this world version.
