Curious this isn't on here yet. One of Jerry's best solos ever. Notes disappear into nothing, then the next one digs and bites. Remarkable feeling.

You know a great version of this tune by the first four or five notes of Jerry's solo and this doesn't disappoint. Phil supports beautifully.

Jerry's feeling it. Beautiful solo, intense jam with searching chromatic phrases.

Great Jerry solo. Love it when he starts it slow with the long spaces and odd accents.

This outro jam sounds great on headphones and in your living room but it probably never sounded better than wafting over a sea of VW buses in a pre-show parking lot circa 1991.

Incredible Bird Song. Jerry is killing this jam. Reckoning version is great but they could have picked this one.

The middle solo and the singing after it are exceptional

I want what Jerry's having.

Agreed with Jort. Just listen to the first 5 notes of Jerry's solo. He came to play. Long, elaborate, lines. An edge to it. Matrix sounds awesome.
