Totally hot version here in line with all the great 1977 versions. Surprised this is not on here. The guys were jacked all night.

They do drive this one home!

They actually fuck up the verses and have to truncate the whole Stephen. Definitely not epic!

This one verse is far from standout version. Its a very good NFA with a verse of IKO in it. No more, no less.

Great NFA! The IKO is basically just one verse meshed into the NFA as stated above.

Musically this is pretty standard. Obviously, the vocals are priceless. Musically, Winterland 10/78 is super sick. At the end Jerry did get more emotional on So many roads, SOTM, etc. Not sure the vocal emotion should make this number one. No up-vote here, only because 10/21/78 is really the definitive version. This version is worthy of a listen, tho.
