The ending jam or reprise jam is excellent and smokes like all the good ones do!

Powerful version. Everything from this night had to be shortened due to Janis playing later.

Another great one from May 1977. Certainly as good as the others. Maybe most consistant song of the tour.

Almost every song had a little extra over these 2 days.

This is a tremendous version. It sticks with focused theme for the first 13 minutes and then first verse. A chill DS theme continues on and then they start exploring at the 16 minute mark. It then gets out there for the last 8 minutes.

Coming in at over 14 minutes you could all this Morning Rat or Wharf Dew....I would have no issues with this being top 5...I do love the 77 New Mexico version, tho.
