Good early version, (5th time played) The only time I saw it close the first set, worth a listen.

The final jam goes at least once more around than usual. Weir is strumming like a mad man and Lesh as many power chords, great version.RT Vol. 3 No. 4

Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
Oct. 31, 1971
Ohio Theatre

Dick’s Pick Vol. 2- I remember an interview with Latvala talking about the transition jam, which comes after the “We bid you Goodnight” coda, which is unique and truly inspirational. Give it a listen, one of my favorites from ’71.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
June 8, 1977
Winterland Arena

This is an astonishing powerful version, a highlight from a very good show on par with Springfield as the best GDTRFB from ‘77
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad
July 17, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

The best I saw in the late 80’s, love the interplay between Garcia and Mydland, big smiles all around.

Dick’s Pick Vol. 20, great show, great Scarlet, this one should have more votes.

Winterland Arena

One of the last stand-alone Scarlet’s, this version is outstanding. All the power of ’77 in the final crescendo, harsh cut in the SBD that was posted on the Taper’s Section, some versions have the Aud source patched, try to listen to that one.
