Billy's doing some interesting stuff on the drums here! And excellent solo from Jer! Vocals too!

74 versions really captured the western tone well. Short and sweet.

Jerry calls for Bertha then proceed to royally flub the lyrics LOL. Solid bouncy version though.

Phil and Brent really escalate the dance party factor of this tune in later years. Great performance this night. Just sheer fun. Comes to awk end.

Swirling rager of a late Other One. The first 5 minutes are super hot.

Not only the best A&R IMO, but some of the best, brightest, purest rock & roll this band has ever done. I think about this one often.
