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!

No doubt, no doubt. FOTD in the 2nd set, what a beauty. This is the version that will sell you on the slowed down pace for this song.

Super-energized version with much Phil. Excellent 1 2 to start out.
