Not normally a huge fan of this live, but it gets really hot in the last few minutes. So good

30 Days of Dead 2016 - as good as any, great sound quality and vocally tight. Great early psychedelic Dead!

Mammoth 10 minute version, great jam in the middle, worth a listen. Brilliant way to end the perfect second set

Insanely good, my personal favourite - Jerry goes otherworldly. Scorcher

This and the one a year to the day are scorching.

This is outstanding, nearly 40 mins on DaP19. Never a dull moment, great rap including a random guest appearance for a few minutes from an unknown voice, not a dull moment despite its incredible length! Should get much higher now the full version has been released

Great version, especially for a standalone. Should be higher IMO

As soon as I heard this I knew it would be at the top on here. Unbelievable jamming, full throttle for 20 minutes, this is the Dead at their best. Absolutely nuts. This has got to be considered one of their best versions of any song in their repertoire. It's that good.
