Including JGB my favourite is Dear Prudence, which almost always was very well played and some versions are really great, a good example IMO is 2-29-80, officially released on the bonus CD with Kean College/After Midnight (2-28-80), a good one also on 8-11-84.
Any other thoughts?

"Do it in the Road" was fun, and it is a throw away, song in the first place, and the Dead made a fun jam out of it . "Lucy in the Sky", was a nce tip of the hat , encore, and "Revolution" , I thought worked well as it was like the White Album version, which has sort of a roots, "Deal" feel , which is of course, right up Jerry's street .

I have it on good authority that they currently use one of Linda McCartney's wings versions for that purpose.
Also, I have a version with just her vocals that I made in college and I swear I heard it during the waco siege in between mating rabbits and other "fun" sounds.

I like the Beatles but the Dead's versions really didn't do much for me. However, the TNK from Atlanta '93 had the Omni about to burst. e

I was never a big fan of the Dead doing Beatles covers, it always struck me as a novelty item.
My favorite JGB cover is Don't Let Go - how Jerry just jammed it. Saw a rip roaring Don't Let Go at Roseland in '83 that just kills.

Novelty is the perfect word for it - I guess they just felt like trying something new.
