Jerry's solo on this one is pure lyrical genius. He defines the theme and then perfects it in the second part. Gives me the tinglies.

Jerry's solo at the end is gorgeous, just when you think he's wrapped it up, he pulls another peak-out riff near the end of the solo, brilliant.

An emotive rendition indeed.

I am unable to form words to describe what this Dark Star does for me. Nothing I know of compares to this version.

Powerfully beautiful. Jerry punctuates Pigpen's vocals with appropriate intensity.
