Beautiful version. Equally delicate and powerful. Wonderful performances from everyone.

this whole show is more sedate and slower than some of the others from earlier this week/tour. Nice Jerry support, good vocals from Bobby.

you're either going to love Jerry's filigree or take it as noodling. I think it adds something to the cowboy songs.

Tempo problems and a weird set ender.

There's a new upgrade of this at LMA. I've always loved the fully organic way this grows from the tuning and evolves into the two-headed dragon of Phil and Jerry's feedback.

Eyes > Estimated > Franklin's. Jerry seems like he runs out of a gas a bit during the between-verse jams, but then he doesn't.
