You can't go wrong with Chuck Berry, and I was always happy to get an A&A to rock out the end of a set.

My personal favorite, and IMO one of the best versions they ever played...

What a crazy sound.

i liked more when it lead into Good Lovin'.   wasn't thrilled when it closed the set.

 

also thought it would have segued nicely into Roll Over Beethoven.

I was at that St. Paul show in 82 it was mighty fine nice Scarlet - Fire and post drums was smoking. My first summer tour not on the East Coast was one of 2 indoor shows on the tour. The other was The Kiel Auditorium in St. Louis. 

I like the ones where they double the tempo part way through.

Love it when Phil drops da bomb!

The double-time ending was what made their version truly epic. For whatever reason, they stopped doing that sometime in 1980/81.

I never heard a reason why they stopped doing it, but more's the pity, because it was a great groove.

Watch the version I posted for the perfect example of how good that could be, and how it so clearly shows that the Grateful Dead were absolutely a ROCK 'N ROLL band.

Along with everything else they were.
