I love long, jammed out versions of this song, and it's worth hearing a shorter one to remind yourself of how beautiful the song is.

Nice show from what I've heard of it, and this one has great energy.

Nice version, with some emotive singing from Bob and Hornsby's accordion support.

Even the rockers have a bit extra, and this one > into "Johnny B. Goode."

Killer stuff. Someone recommended me the matrix of this (https://archive.org/details/gd1978-07-08.126239.mtx-redo.eichorn.sbeok.t-flac16). Powerful playing.

Obviously a superior version from a run full of them, but Joe_Brown and Quibus point out the obvious weakness: the transition into Big River. They land it, and it's interesting, but things fall apart for while.

Keith makes this version.
