Jerry's having a great night, and check our Brent in the segue to Eyes!

Keith (and everybody) is so on point in this twangy humdinger.

It's a great little tune when they play it like they did in summer '73.

Hampton Coliseum

Sprinkled with magic, emphatic but not leaden. Jerry's guitar and voice are both very fine in this bright, powerful version.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Dane County Coliseum

I'm the first to acknowledge others' contributions, but this one is all about Jerry, who gives a textbook demonstration of his nimblest and most soulful playing. Way underrated.

Amazing dynamics on this version. Delicate without ever losing its pulse.

It's not just you. This version was one of my early go-tos (you know, when I wanted to hear BIODTL).
