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.

I think this one is very interesting if you're in the right mood to focus on it. Pig's rap in the final two minutes before Caution is one of his best ever!

Unique ending to the solo on this one, resulting from the boys cutting Jerry off prematurely...

That peak around the 8:00 mark sure sneaks up on you...WOW! Billy's touches as it winds to a close are extra-sweet on this one as well.
