Conjures circus tents, smoky saloons and Frankenstein in a souped-up '57 Chevy. Well worth a listen!

Winterland Arena

A song that I feel was good in each part of its iteration. Jerry's solo in this version is quite accomplished and kinda goes outside in a sweetly melodic way, something that later in the decade he would maybe abandon in his solo on 'Bertha' but use on that in 'TLEO', albeit slowed down.
