Kiel Auditorium
Slow, haunting, and dramatic. Comes slithering out of Space like a wafting plume of smoke.

As is typical of this era of the band, Keith totally owns this version. I can't get enough of just how tasty his piano fills are here.

Opens set two with energy. Keith and Jerry duel it out the whole way through the song.

Johnny B. Goode

U.C.
Love versions of this track from 72 and 73, and this one's no exception. Keith's piano is great, Jerry's playing with gusto, everyone's locked in.

Keith's gentle keys add SO much to this version - a very emotive rendition, just as it should be

Nice and aggressive - great version coming hot on the heels of a good rendition of The Wheel.
You Win Again
Nov. 20, 1971
Pauley Pavilion
That’s a great way of putting it! I’ve always thought they totally nailed this song when playing it, but could never put my finger on why it was so good. The way you describe it, the magic might just be in the solo! At the very least, that’s what makes this particular version stand out.

Baltimore Civic Center
"They don't trust me," remarks Bobby after a goofy on-stage discussion about how many bars the jam has. And yet, it's a HOT version with a great jam.
New Minglewood Blues
Oct. 15, 1983
Civic Center
I like how Bobby catches himself here - "New Yor...uh...New England fillies." Yeah, us Heads in Maine aren't sure if Connecticut is in New York or New England either. ;D
Drums -> Space

Madison Square Garden
Miles Davis' "In a Silent Way" is quoted during the transition between Drums and Space. It's a really neat interpolation!
