Jerry is screaming steal your face right off of your head.

Lakeland Civic Center

Like a racehorse charging out of the gate, winning it wire to wire. I'm diggin' '82 more and more.

Promised Land
July 26, 1972
Paramount Theater

It's a Promised Land from 1972 - you should know what to expect. An uptempo rocker that's a nice listen.

Jerry's guitar soars on this one. Really good vocals, too.

Manhattan Center

Solid early version with crisp vocals and Jerry sounding good.

Childhood's End
Oct. 3, 1994
Boston Garden

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.
Childhood's End
July 5, 1995
Riverport Amphitheater

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.
Childhood's End
July 9, 1995
Soldier Field

If you really like Phil's singing, I guess you'll like this. I think it's awful - a set killer.
A Voice From On High
Aug. 5, 1970
Golden Hall - San Diego Community Concourse

Possibly the best out of the 4. If not, surely second best.
A Voice From On High
July 30, 1970
The Matrix

An improvement from the show on 7-11.
