Phil and Bill sound like a runaway box car in an Appalachian mine! Heady interplay during the solos.

Cool chording from Bobby and a very restless Phil during the verses, then Billy and Keith fire off the jack hammer at the end of Jerry's lyrical solo.

This one is pretty unique for a song that didn't change much night to night...

Excellent version highlighted by a very jittery Billy with lots of ghost notes on the snare! Slightly botched ending, but otherwise great...

Billy really steals the show on this one...tosses in a variety of grooves, all to great success.

Transition finds a really unique space...like they stumbled upon a peaceful little meadow along the way and wandered in for a minute :)

This one is groovy as hell! Has me bouncing around in my seat every which way (and it's not just the couple cups of coffee I've had)!

Wow, y'all weren't kidding about Jerry's final solo in IKYR!!! Hot, hot, hot!
