Get the f--k outta here, no one's listed this. This one's got an infectious groove. Bobby works the slide sweetly. Crank it.

Surprised this isn't here. Jerry rocks the acoustic on this unique and awesome version. Around 8:45 he really goes to town.

The Music Never Stopped

Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

This one is absolutely top notch. Has a beautiful mid-section jam. Jerry's on top of his game. Do stick around for the Estimated Prophet at this show as well, another rockin' midsection jam there too!

Providence Civic Center

The mid section jam is how I always judge the success of EP's performance. Check out 5-7, 5-10, & 5-16 from '78. Smokers!

Carolina Coliseum - University of South Carolina

In '85 for some reason, the rain was really irritating Bobby and it shows in his powerful emotional performances of this tune. Different vibe from the '70's versions. I don't like the added echo effect, however.
