Notable because of what Bobby and Jerry play at the end of the jam. Fast forward to it if you need to.

Great version. Jerry plays angry, always a good sign. Check out his first solo. Also, Brent's mumbly jumbly solo is not too bad here.

Brilliant interplay between guitars. Convincing vox by Bobby.

You can hear Brent listen. Also love when Jerry switches to fingerpicking in the solo.

Bobby has a very good idea singing Wang Dang Doodle over this.

Fillmore East

Agree with iknowyourider. The amount of empty space early in this DS is frightening and beautiful. Also love what Phil plays at 22:46.

Bobby's playing is amazing in the jam.

One of my fave tapes from way back when. So many great moments from Jerry and Phil, especially in the transition and during Fire.

Jerry is really paying attention to this. Great emotion and inspiration vocally and in the solo.
