I usually fast-forward past this song, but this is a bouncing version. I wish Jerry had sung it more. Thanks for pointing it out.

Selland Arena

With the bass so high in the mix, this version is a perfect demonstration of Phil's great contributions to the Dead's sound in this era. Ninety-nine percent of bassists would just play an oompah bottom on a simple three-chord country song like this. Phil, though, is all over the place.
