Very energetic version from a period when that wasn't a given.

A surprisingly powerful version, JG very passionate and on-top of it. Especially given it had to follow a LWTGH which fizzled into nothing.

Very powerful Bobby on this one: his acoustic pairs nicely with strong vocals. And great support from the band & Hornsby as well.

The final crescendo is okay, but the guitar break mid-song is really quite strong.

Yeah, Bob's voice is shot, but Jerry's solo and fills at the end are truly powerful; and he gets really good support from Vince on piano.

Ooh,this one burns.

Yeah, I'll vote it up. Interesting version, as are both of the shows on DaP's X: we get to see the Dead between the psychedelic Live/Dead (69) period and the more rock-oriented 1970 era.

Perfectly paced version.
