First set opener, I really dig the MDs os this era. Still kind of sturdy and brisk but becoming the majestic ballad that it was in the 70s/80s.

This is an all-timer, I say...Garcia plays like a trumpet here, pre-midi...

This is fantastic and should receive votes! On Download Series 7. Garcia's guitar is REALLY loud on the solo!

This has been my favorite version for enough years that I don't think that's going to change. Cornell ranked above this is absurd. There is indeed a case for Nov. 4th, but I like this one better. But even the Mosque ahead of this? Nonsense! I take heart, though, that there are some wise comments above.

Absolutely absurd ranking. My favorite is 1977-05-26. 11-04 is the popular choice. This isn't as good as either.

This is one of the best versions ever. Totally completely underrated, maybe because the recording is bad
