They blast right out of the gate with this blazing hot "Deal." Jerry is in fiery form and brings thing to where you want them to be.

Jerry and Bob have some fantastic interplay throughout this one.

Seriously, this needs to be WAAAAAAAY higher. They play this song like their welcoming back a long lost friend. Keith is more alive here than he is in any other part of the show. Jerry's solo is the definition of torched and his fills are to die for. As good as many 1972-74 versions.

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

One of those where you really can't find another one like it. This one's a real trip.

Carousel Ballroom

This early version reminds me of the Doors; Jerry even sounds like he's darkening his tone a bit to mirror Morrison a little. Really cool version.
