Fantastic version! Tons of MIDI Jerr w/ flute-like and synthy guitar tones. Jerry and Brent come to a blistering dissonant peak before final chorus

Truly heart-wrenching version. Just wonderful coming out of the drums > space (which is absolutely looney, vapor-trash-amazement). My go to version of this song. Jerry ballads are just so much more weighty when he's near death.

One of my personal favorite versions // the portion beginning at about 13:50 could have been used as the music in the Mos Eisley Cantina -- truly world music from another world. Shades of The Residents work in the 90s and a demonstration of the Rhythm Devils' proto-vaporwave predilections.
