This one is just ridiculously good. Jerry's solo is fantastic, and the band is on all the way through.

Another one of those "not sure why it's" great versions. The Philly crowd singalong is great too!

One of my favorite outro jams. Jerry, distortion and Billy's speed drumming.

This bustout version doesn't get enough love. Understood it's not 72 jammy but the ending is the heaviest of Dead. Hey Cuse, I have always wanted to tab Phil's ending jam. It would sure take awhile.

Jerry digs into this final solo. Energy show finished off right!

Yes indeed. This Stephen>NotFade>Stephen is just exactly perfect. The NotFade is a powerful piece of music, for sure.
