Honestly one of my all time favorite shows.

Agree this is the top version. This whole run coupled with Radio City is honestly as on as the boys could be. Some truly tight crisp performances. Jerry is so beautiful on this evening.

Charlie Miller is a godsend. Slow and deliberate sung with purity. A typically crisp 1980 version. https://archive.org/details/gd1980-09-26.sbd.miller.118444.flac16
