This is a great sleeper; a hidden gem. Bobby sings it so well, and is, like, on key and stuff! High energy taboot. Gotta check it out!!!

Ain't It Crazy (The Rub)
May 15, 1970
Fillmore East (Late Show)

This is a fun version and Pig is killin' it. Some great Jerry banter immediately after the tune ends... But that's not why I submitted it. Solid!

As much as I love the entire Fillmore run, I think this version surpasses those in execution and vocal performance. Jerry sounds great!

Seriously though, this is an all-around solid, high-energy version. Check it out.

my favorite Sugaree. Very relaxed and delicate at times- patience definitely pays off in this version.
