Pyramid Arena

Epic bust out in Memphis, the home of Al Green. Sorry, Talking Heads did not write the song. Firm believer this was the best run in 1995.

Fillmore East (Late Show)

Another great acoustic version from 1970. Alot of heady stuff from these shows.

Its kind of a chill slowed version. Doesn't make it any less heady, though. Just different.

I wish some one who was a better writer than me could write a paragraph about why this version is inadequate and help me understand why its so low. Honestly, this version is in top 5 that I listen to for all reasons listed in the above post. It's a version that has everything.

It was tough to appreciate it when they played it every other night.

Jerry has that tone in the final solo that is like fuck alpine 89....I'm going heavy metal.

Everything was played so well this night with killer song selection. This little ditty gets lost in this epic show.
