Bob is heavy in the mix, but still a great version

Great early version

Beautiful 73 version, outro jam is especially juicy. Leads into a Truckin’ that is equally underrated.

Gentle, mellow version, leading into a great Spoonful. Check out the video on YouTube

The boys light it up on this classic era Althea. Find an AUD version, this whole show slaps

Cool, unique version. AUD only, it seems

Raceway Park

Jerry nearly bursts into flames several times during this one! Look for the FM broadcast SBD on the archive. It has rougher, more energetic feel than the Dick's Picks version.

A nearly flawless rendition. Give this one a listen, you won't be disappointed.

Lindley Meadows, Golden Gate Park

The AUD version is so hot it's molten. Some flubs early on but the crescendo and outro jam are spectacular. Highly recommended.

Super fast, super-charged, and totally awesome version! One time I was wide-eyed and asked my friend, "Do you wanna know what cocaine sounds like?" Then I played this song and we both totally lost it.
