This Bertha cooks. Definately deserves to be here. Jerry forgets the last verse, but the less Jerry sings, the more Jerry plays.

Not as good as the shrine, but has its amazing moments.

As heartfelt as the Europe versions. Worth a listen. Lots of epic stuff on DP 23.

Can't explain, but the groove is sweet.

I love this show and of course this epic Dew. Jer is great lyrically. The version is gentle when it needs to be. Jer throttles the final solo, but id like to mention that Phil is thick on this version. Huge 8 minute outro that has extreme patience and build up until the monster load is blown. Last thing like it was 77. Three 77 versions and 87 MSG are better and that's it.

Lovin this version. Still pretty focused for being 46 minutes. Probably should be top 3.
