Dickey’s solo which we call the funeral dirge, is tremendous! Dickey said in one interview that Duane had done something unusual which inspired Dickey to extend his part. I agree, I’ve listen to hundreds of versions of the song, this is the best. Never, never gets old.

Thanks for this. Exactly why I chose this one as my favorite. Beautiful and haunting at the same.

Thanks Alan. Proving once again that Bill Graham was a genius! He NEVER made introductions that long. Even when Aretha played Fillmore West on Market Street (not the original Fillmore).
