The sad thing is there are few if any videos of Jerry singing "The Wheel." He was truly a great American musician and was gone way too soon. For quite a while I thought Credence were the best American band from the rock era. Over time I realized the Dead were much greater. For a guy with 9+ fingers and a tendency to addiction, Jerry gave the band its soul.

Here is another one, "China Cat Sunflower." Bob "Ace" Weir is the other guy up front and Phil Lesh is on bass.

Their live album "Europe 72" had an even better version, a segue into "I Know You Rider." Here is as good a video version as you are likely to get.
