Final time played, Pig is in fine form, acoustic set here is beautiful, entire show for that matter is transcendent stuff.

Great year for this song, no doubt, emotive, and serene. A quick ride in time, Capitol Theater 1970.

Playin' In The Band

I would stack this up with nearly all other latter day playin' jams. Super weird, but absolutely massive

Blistering solos by Jerry. I might even like this as much as that monster Playin' from this second set. Forget the Road Trips, the AUD for this show is superb.
Viola Lee Blues

Avalon Ballroom

Full throttle, dark, and energetic.
The Other One
April 6, 1969
Avalon Ballroom

Certainly one of the best ever.

Jerry Garcia called this the definitive version. I would hesitate to go that far, but a great version in its own right.
