This is a really smoking version. The playing is great with high intensity and energy.

Nice transition from the drums. Good energy and firm attitude towards the song. Crowd enjoying it very much. Nice fading at the end.

An early short version, coming in at about 7 minutes, but the jam is intense and wonderful.

I like how this one loses it's sense of being NFA. Good grinding jam and esp the interplay between Jerry and Bobby. Fun.

Pretty standard until "brave the storm to come" and then it is stupendous and moving. Donna is sweet and pure.

I really like the pace of this one. Takes its own sweet time to get to where it is going, but it satisfies. :0)

A greatly underappreciated version. I suppose because it's not linked to Fire, but really, take the time to listen to this. You will not regret it. Good stuff here.
