The main reasons I mention this version are the return of the Spanish Jam and then Alabama Getaway at the end. Great for 81.

This first East Coast UJB in three years opens the 2nd set with the sweetest of sweet ist instrumentals as well as a great closing jam. The next year's version is great too.

The transition from China Doll back to UJB is as delicate and fragile as a...China Doll. This is the final time the band ever did the traditional UJB > Playin transition.
