'73 was a special year for He's Gone. Could Keith play any sweeter than on this version? I think not.

Man did I ever love Sugar Mag sandwich 2nd sets. It always signalled a dance marathon ahead. Add in my favorite Brent transition ever to Scarlet.

Out fkn standing. It just is. The whole song. Brent follow of Jerry in the mid-song solo makes me smile.

Loved Brent's vocals and organ on this song. I do feel that 12/26/79 is the best ever. Over the years this song seemed to always be consistently good.

No doubts. A beautiful version and it is the best. So very heartfelt and a great transition after the 3-headed monster that starts this 2nd set. Not sure why the song wasn't included on Built to Last or why it didn't stay in the lineup. Jerry had his reasons I'm sure.
