The band tries to kill the pre-SSDD jam, but Jerry is having no part of it and he plays on.

Jerry got some serious boogie goin' on. How did this gem escape our attention for so long?

There's a spot - as usual for this song - where Jerry's guitar work is off. Overall, this is better than some other versions I've listened to. Again, Vince does his best and sounds good.

This is brutal. Jerry's guitar work pre-vocals and on the first instrumental break are way off and sound really sour. The harmonies often clash. Vince is playing better than anybody else.

If you really like Phil's singing, I guess you'll like this. I think it's awful - a set killer.

Golden Hall - San Diego Community Concourse

Possibly the best out of the 4. If not, surely second best.

An improvement from the show on 7-11.
