Give it a listen. Actually think its better than all the great 1977 versions.

This show is one of the best and this UJB can hang with any. One of my favorite versions.

This one absolutely cooks out of Nobody's fault. Off Road Trips.

I know its listed as Dark Star, but its a true MLBJ. Great country twang to it.

This version is great too. Jerry gives a little more at end.

This really is a sweet version...Healy adds the fake thunder as Bobby screams.

Had to throw this one in again...not for the faint of heart. Its pretty focused for the first 25 minutes and then you get finally the first verse. It then totally dissolves into chaos, but then at the 36 minute mark it has some cool focused jamming as it outros right into Eyes. Pretty amazing version. I still think Rotterdam is more complex, but this certainly is one that all deadheads need to respect.

Excellent stand alone version...real nice mid-jam and excellent outro into Eyes...WTF! That is why this site rocks...no idea this existed.
