It's hard to say exactly why this version of this tune that no one thinks about too much is heady, but it really, really is

Builds to a phenomenal peak. Weir and Jerry are on it.

Are you kidding? This is one of the best Big Rivers I've heard. Phil, Jerry, what else can I say? Crank it up

Franklin's Tower

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Great version at the end of an amazing 2nd set sequence. Love what Bobby plays at the end, and Jerry throughout.
Wharf Rat

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

The intro has a Dark Star vibe. Great version.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
July 7, 1978
Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Fantastic, raucous version. Great solo. Great slide playing by Bobby (you heard me right).
Estimated Prophet

Omaha Civic Auditorium

Heavy, intense version. Listen to Phil as well as Jerry in the jam.

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

Jerry gives it all in the solo. Had to listen to it twice. Even the parts that don't sound good sound great when you listen again.
