Airplay perfect. Seems like they wanted to pick up the pace a bit and this one is just fine and dandy.

Don't shut off the after the LIG>DitS>CC! This version just keeps on giving - great jam all 'round.

Muscular and confident, not at all dragging. Don't overlook it. It's brilliant and perfect coming in a blazingly good show and great 2nd set.

This one cooks. Keith puts on a master class of the old razzle dazzle.

Great standalone sandwiched between a Sugar Mag and her Sunshine Daydream. Nice combo.

Absolute face melter. Kicks off an absolute dream sequence in the 2nd set.

Keith is woodshedding throughout this. Gives us a master blaster class of razzle and dazzle during the whole number. He's got ten fingers on each hand if he's got one!
Its All Over Now

Teases "Blackbird" in the noodling after, which is honestly my favorite part of this version. Not to disrespect the song, but it didn't move me. This JGB with Bobby doing an acoustic Blackbird sure did, however, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMsS-fIhWuk

Not only is this the first version since 17.06.1975 (not since 1974 as said here), but this may be the very first pure disco beat they played in concert. Disco-dead might not be everybody's favourite cuppa, but it certainly did happen.... Enjoy it you cardboard cowboys!!!

Don't be a heal and head for the exits just yet, trying to get to the parking lot first. They've got one more in them....
