This is a clear and well delivered version of this song. Jerry's vocals are strong and Keith is adding some very nice honky-tonk piano!

Very solid bluesy show opener for what whould soon be a psychadelic explosion. Jerry's Gibson tone permiates your bones.

This is pure 69 psychadelic energy, at it's very best!

Crisp, clean and energetic. Bobby's guitar is up in the mix, and it was about 8 months before Keith's piano would step on his complex rythm work!

This is another example of the fantastic, energetic, psyhadelic magic that the boys got, post Mickey and pre Keith!

I dig Jerry's solo too,^ I accept Bobby's screeches, at least it's not Donna. The instrumental quality of this show more then makes up for it.

This a bouncy , energetic rendition of this song. Strong playing by everyone. Jerry's voice is in very good form here and his Strat playing is just right for this song. This entire show is good. The Miller source is the way to go on this one.

^Yes, those Miller versions never let you down. Jerry's Strat work on this song, and other blues songs, is much more spare and twangy then his Gibson solos. This was a unique and wonderful period in their carrier.

Another under appreciated 69 treasure. 50 years ago, my friends! where is your hunger for history?

You're really mining the early hidden gems Mr. PeaCH. This version is too good to be languishing on the bottom of the list! It looks like you're right in my wheel house of taste, the 67 through 69 psychedelic cookers. Not to take anything away from the later era, it's just a different bag!
