Slinky and smooth. Jerry and Brent tear it. Great ‘84 version.

San Jose Civic Auditorium

Board mix issues aside, this is a tight August ‘72 rendition where everyone is in the pocket.

A nice little gem where the band is locked in and Jerry is in the zone. The final jam really shines

The whole show radiates a particular smooth and groovy energy, and this song is no exception.
