Sparkles. Has an electric country sound that just crackles with energy. Perfect execution.

An ultimate performance. Jerry's voice is in perfect shape. Powerful, chilling version that will make your hair stand on end. Shamefully overlooked.

Powerful tight playing. C.Miller cleanup, boys playing the 1st set like their lives depended on it. Peak Dead.

Note for note precise, beautiful playing. The outro is lovely and doesn't descend into madness. Donna gives it a nice gospel touch.

Check out the C.Miller mix for great rocking balls-out Winter '73 Dead. Perfect mix with every instrument clear and balanced.

Stealth show with pristine versions throughout a perfect 1st set - and then the 2nd set just takes off.

Listening to this one a lot this week, and I agree with ferretstew. The band is just so tight and together. The energy builds and builds, and this version stands out for its coherence and the arc of its composition. I also love 02 Dec., which gets much weirder, but this one shows off their virtuosity.

Never have I dug this song so much as this version. Sweet but strong.
