Very smoking version that's a fair representation of the entire show. Great energy all night!

It's just played really well. The entire show is good but nothing better than an A-. Show was heavy in my rotation in youth. A+ SBD. Nice CRS opener!

Played in hyper speed and everything still sounds just exactly perfect. A great way to end a set in any era

One of many great Straws from '78 - not quite my favorite of the year but none are nearly as intense as this one.

Yep - this one is all about the first solo. Triumphant is exactly how i've always described it as well
