Hot version! Not quite as epic as the night after, but still incredible.

An absolute tsunami, one of the most intense ever this side of 3/2/69

A particularly jazzy version; Jerry is ablaze and climbing to enormous heights.

Very long and spacy version that gets very intense. One of the best of Europe '72.

astonishing, otherworldly jamming and interplay on this version, Jerry, Keith, and Bob going absolutely insane. A++

Absolutely mesmerizing version. The main ten theme is jammed out during the reprise for all it's worth!!!

This surprised the hell out of me. A very energetic, yet spacey and jazzy rendition with a reprise jam for the ages. Great stuff!!
