Jerry and Brent feeling it. Interesting Bertha > CB 2nd set opener

Jerry takes charge in the jam and doesn't put a foot wrong. Waits for the others before the peak. Deceptively profound version.

In true perverse fashion, the Dead backed Dylan at his lowest point. But the way he sings this - on the wrong chords - has an insane urgency.

Phil is great as the comments say but Jerry is the one who is really feeling it in the jam.

Love how Bobby climbs to the peak. Great jam after too.

Huge 20-minute version. Jerry is full of ideas and loose and free. Bobby plays a great slide riff at almost 12 minutes in.

Another third chorus in the solo and Jerry rips it up
