Billy is pretty aggressive, as he is this whole show, and Jerry's soloing is hot...

Flowing straight out of a fantastic 'Half-Step,' this is a goon one. It's between '71 and '72 for the best year for 'Sugar Mags' IMO...

Jerry's solo has a bit of a '73 feel on this one...that liquid, mellow intensity.

Tight, well-sung and really buzzing with energy. Keith has some great flourishes.

Hilarious intro as Bob and Jerry come in out of time with Phil. Hot one once they get going -- especially Billy, who's really 'on' at this show...

Nice addition of a little Jerry solo in this one!

Absolutely mind-blowing how much they pack into just a 10-minute version!
Playin' In The Band

Wembley Empire Pool

Unbelievably dense and intense for its length, just like the "Good Lovin'" right after!

Jerry is fantastic on this one as well -- great tone!

Love Brent's solo on this one...hints of Jerry Lee Lewis.
